Common Causes of 18-Wheeler Crashes in Beaumont & Port Arthur

East-Texas trucking companies and industrial transport fleets must follow federal safety laws — but violations are common in refinery and port areas.

Frequent causes of truck wrecks include:

  • Fatigued or over-scheduled truck drivers

  • Unsafe lane changes in refinery & port traffic

  • Distracted or impaired drivers

  • Failure to inspect brakes, tires, and rigs

  • Hazardous materials and chemical transport accidents

  • Cargo overload & shifting-load rollovers

  • Speeding on major corridors like I-10 & SH-69

We immediately secure black-box data, logs, maintenance records, dispatch notes, and safety manuals to build your case before evidence disappears.

Severe Injuries from 18-Wheeler Collisions

The size and weight of commercial trucks makes injuries in these wrecks devastating.

We handle trucking cases involving:

  • Traumatic brain injuries & concussions
