Why Truck Accidents Are So Devastating in Dallas
Dallas is a hub for commercial trucking, with major routes like I-35E, I-20, Loop 12, and I-45 constantly packed with 18-wheelers, flatbeds, and delivery trucks. These vehicles are essential to commerce—but they can also become dangerous weapons when safety isn’t a priority.
From fatigued drivers rushing to meet deadlines to overloaded rigs barreling down the highway, the risks are everywhere. And when a truck crashes, the damage is often catastrophic. Victims may face lifelong injuries, job loss, and emotional trauma—not to mention battles with insurance adjusters more interested in protecting profits than helping people.
What to Do After a Truck Accident in Dallas
- Call 911 and seek immediate medical attention — even if you feel “okay.” Some injuries, like internal bleeding or concussions, may not show up right away.
- Document the scene — take photos of the vehicles, road conditions, and any visible injuries if you’re able.
- Don’t talk to the trucking company’s insurance adjuster — they may try to use your words against you.
- Contact an experienced team at Trust Guss — the sooner we get involved, the faster we can protect your rights and gather critical evidence.
Our truck accident lawyers in Dallas will take it from there.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Dallas
Truck crashes happen for many reasons, including:
- Driver fatigue and hours-of-service violations
- Speeding or reckless driving to meet tight schedules
- Distracted driving (texting, GPS use, etc.)
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Improper lane changes or failure to yield
- Overloaded or unsecured cargo
- Poor maintenance and equipment failure
- Unsafe weather or road conditions
These aren’t just accidents—they’re often the result of careless or profit-driven decisions. We know how to investigate and hold everyone accountable.

- Truck or parts manufacturers
- Vehicle maintenance providers
- Other drivers involved in the crash
We’ll dig deep to identify everyone who played a role and pursue claims against all liable parties.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dallas Truck Accident Questions Answered
You generally have two years from the date of the crash to file a claim. But don’t wait—important evidence can disappear quickly.
In Texas, you can still recover compensation if you’re less than 51% responsible. Your settlement will just be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Some of the most dangerous areas include:
- I-35E (Stemmons Freeway)
- LBJ Freeway (I-635)
- I-30 through downtown Dallas
- Loop 12 and U.S. 75 (Central Expressway)
Yes. Those initial offers are often far too low. You should never sign or accept anything before talking to a lawyer.
At Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, you pay nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee—meaning we only get paid if you do.
