Truckers Have Rights Too
As a Dallas-Fort Worth personal injury lawyer, I know that no-one is invincible. Accidents can happen to anyone at any time. Even if you’re the safest driver in Texas, there is still no way you can protect yourself from the idiot who decided to drink and drive, or any other negligent motorist. Given the sheer size and weight of 18-wheeler trucks, it’s obvious that they can cause massive devastation and injury to any car or motorcycle unlucky enough to get in a collision with them. But what about the trucker himself?
Truck drivers are just at risk from suffering critical injuries in a traffic wreck as any other motorist or passenger. When two big rigs crash into each other, the property damage and personal injuries can be horrendous. Fortunately, truckers have the same legal rights as any other road user in Texas.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident while driving a commercial truck, it’s important that you consult with an experienced Texas truck wreck attorney who can explain your legal rights and options as they apply to your personal situation. Even if you’re benefitting from worker’s comp or a personal insurance policy, you might still be entitled to seek additional damages to help cover your past and future medical expenses and any loss of income stemming from the crash.
