The south Texas metropolitan region around Houston, Texas, is one of the busiest commercial transportation hubs in the country. 18 wheeler accidents and collisions caused by blowouts, truck driver violations, and unsafe loads are common and result in a significant number of personal injury and wrongful death claims every year. Most trucking companies, however, train drivers in what they should do and say after an accident to avoid being held responsible.
