San Antonio 18-Wheeler Accident Attorneys

18-wheeler accidents happen often in the city of San Antonio. In fact, Bexar County recorded over 2600 commercial vehicle crashes in 2024. Commercial motor vehicles (or CMVs) are larger than standard automobiles, with common types including vans, buses, box trucks, trailers, and more. But 18-wheelers, also known as big rigs or semi-trucks, tower above all other CMVs as the largest on the road.

Getting into an accident with an 18-wheeler can have life-altering consequences. Common trucking accident injuries can include traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries that cause permanent disability. Severe collisions can even be fatal.

18-wheelers, their drivers, and trucking companies all face heavy restrictions and regulations due to the substantial risk for injury. Federal and state law subjects these vehicles to strict weight limits, size limits, frequent maintenance checks, special licensing, and more. Anyone involved in owning, maintaining, or operating an 18-wheeler must carefully abide by these policies.

Sadly, our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers have seen trucking companies and their employees show flagrant disregard for these rules.

We have seen 18-wheeler truckers ignore safety checks, drive recklessly, and speed way over the legal limit. Moreover, we’ve seen trucking companies turn a blind eye or even encourage these practices so they can meet tight deadlines. When trucking companies and their drivers prioritize speed and profit over road safety, tragic accidents become inevitable.

If a truck driver’s negligence permanently injured you or someone you know, consider seeking legal advice. A San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyer will know how to prove your injuries were preventable and recover financial compensation.

What is An 18-Wheeler?

An 18-wheeler, also known as a semi-truck or big rig, is a large type of commercial motor vehicle. Nearly 200,000 drivers across Texas operate these vehicles, carrying and transporting heavy loads of goods and merchandise across the country.

An 18-wheeler has two main parts:

• Tractor: front part of the 18-wheeler hauling the trailer behind it. This is where the driver sits and operates the vehicle.
• Trailer: rear part of the 18-wheeler where shippers load and store the cargo. This is where the majority of the truck’s weight comes from.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is the entity that regulates 18-wheelers and other commercial motor vehicles. They set firm restrictions on different aspects of the truck, including:

• Weight: Must not weigh over 40 tons (approximately 80,000 lbs.)

---

• Length: Must not measure longer than 80 feet (unless additional permits allow the vehicle to go over this limit)

---

• Height: Must not measure taller than 14 feet (including the combined height of the vehicle and its load)

---

• Axles: May carry a maximum of 20,000 pounds (for a single axle). Axle groups must have 40 inches in spacing between one another

These seemingly small details can become very important when assessing the causes of an 18-wheeler accident. Our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers understand these limits and why they are necessary for promoting road safety. This helps us with pinpointing corporate responsibility for commercial trucking accidents and proving it in court.

Which Roads in San Antonio Have the Most 18-Wheeler Accidents?

In recent years, San Antonio has seen a record number of deadly crashes, including 18-wheeler accidents. According to the police and traffic investigators, a vast majority of these accidents are preventable. Some of the most dangerous roads and intersections in San Antonio with a high risk of 18-wheeler accidents include:

Types of 18-Wheeler Accidents in San Antonio

Each commercial truck accident is unique in its own ways. 18-wheelers in particular have a number of common accident types that each come with their own risks to passenger cars. These 18-wheeler accidents are the ones our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers see most frequently in their cases:

18-Wheeler Rollover Accidents

An 18-wheeler driver can lose control of their vehicle when they excessively speed on road curves. The truck’s higher center of gravity gives drivers less leverage, causing it to roll over onto other vehicles. Other factors, such as improperly loaded cargo, distracted driving, and truck driver’s fatigue may also contribute to 18-wheeler rollover accidents.

---

18-Wheeler Head-on Collisions

Head-on collisions occur when one vehicle T-bones into another, directly ramming into the vehicle’s side at full force. When the 18-wheeler crashes into the side of a passenger car head-on, it commonly results in fatalities. Major causes of head-on collisions include:

• Truckers speeding, texting while driving, falling asleep at the wheel, or other forms of distracted driving
• Truckers violating traffic signals, such as running red lights or stop signs
• Truckers pulling out into oncoming traffic without thoroughly checking that they are clear
• Truckers attempting to U-turn when it is not clear

---

18-Wheeler Rear-end Crashes

An 18-wheeler requires about 40 to 50% more space than a passenger car to reach a complete stop. A slight lack of alertness, whether it’s from distractions or trucker’s fatigue, can cause drivers to follow too closely behind.

An 18-wheeler ramming into the back of a vehicle at full force can cause serious pileups on the highway. Depending on how hard the truck rear-ends the car in front of them, multiple people may sustain injuries.

---

18-Wheeler Underride Accidents

When a passenger car rear-ends an 18-wheeler, they may get stuck underneath the back of the truck. While most 18-wheelers have rear guards to prevent this, underride accidents can still occur if the guards are too weak.

Passenger cars may also get stuck under the 18-wheeler if they hit the moving truck from the side. In these cases, the 18-wheeler can drag the crushed vehicle along the road underneath it and cause further catastrophic injuries. Underride crashes are the type of commercial trucking accident that most commonly results in fatalities.

About Underride Accidents

---

Trucking Industry Continues to Ignore Side Underride Guards

Because of the high fatality rate of underride accidents, the FMCSA has mandated rear underride guards for all U.S. 18-wheelers. However, despite the known risks, no such mandate exists for side underride guards. Since the law doesn’t force them, many trucking companies refuse to implement these safety guards, citing high costs.

The American Truckers Association publicly scrutinized a 2019 bill proposing to enforce side underride guard installation on all 18-wheelers. They cast doubt on these guards in an open letter to Congress, calling them “expensive and unproven collision mitigation equipment.”

But other groups have a different opinion. The Institute for Highway Safety (IHS) still advocates for side underride guards with published research to back up their claims. The dispute over their need is currently ongoing; federal law still does not yet require side underride guards for semi-trucks.

---

18-Wheeler Jackknife Accidents

Icy road conditions, sudden braking, or abrupt turns can make the 18-wheeler driver lose control of their vehicle’s back half. This can cause the trailer to skid and slide into walls, guard rails, or other lanes of traffic.

People call these “jackknife” accidents because of how the 18-wheeler’s trailer stops at a 90-degree angle with the cab. The resulting accident configuration looks similar to an open folding pocketknife blade.

Oncoming vehicles can crash into this angle, creating dangerous and even potentially fatal traffic obstructions.

---

18-Wheeler Tire Blowout Accidents

With 18 tires in a single vehicle, these big rigs have a higher risk of a tire blowout. Tire blowouts are especially dangerous when the 18-wheeler is travelling at full speed on a highway. A blowout can make the driver lose control of the vehicle as it rolls over or swerves into nearby cars.

Common causes for 18-wheeler tire blowouts include underinflation, overheating, or unnoticed punctures. Trucking companies have a corporate responsibility to catch issues like worn-out or underinflated tires during routine maintenance checks. When they fail to properly upkeep the trucks in their fleet, they may be legally liable for accidents like blowouts.

Each of these commercial trucking accidents presents different risks to Our experienced San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers have in-depth knowledge of the different types of accidents that can occur. We can help analyze the type of collision that injured you and investigate why and how it happened.

What Are Common Injuries in 18-wheeler Accidents?

18-wheeler accidents have a higher risk for catastrophic injuries and fatalities due to the vehicle’s sheer size and power. The following are the most common catastrophic trucking accident injuries our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers encounter in these cases:

What qualifies as a catastrophic trucking injury?

A catastrophic injury critically impairs the victim, leaving them with long-term or even permanent health complications. This can include injuries that result in nerve damage, paralysis, chronic pain, or disfigurement. Catastrophic injuries prevent the victim from living the life they lived prior to the accident. Attorneys will consider factors like lost income or long-term medical care when determining recoverable damages for a client’s catastrophic injuries.

Traumatic Brain Injuries

The inertia from 18-wheeler impacts can thrust a victim’s head against the wheel, airbag, or window. If they hit their head hard enough, the driver or passenger may sustain serious brain injuries.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) can cause subtle symptoms at first like headaches, concentration loss, and memory problems. But these injuries can worsen over time and cause more severe symptoms that impact the senses. Victims of TBIs may lose their sense of sight, hearing, or smell. They may also develop long-term conditions like vertigo (sense of spinning while still) or ear ringing (tinnitus).

Brain damage isn’t always immediately visible after an 18-wheeler accident. Victims who have taken a blow to the head should always go to the hospital, even when they feel fine.

Traumatic Brain Injury: Our client suffered a serious traumatic brain injury after an 18-wheeler crash ejected him from his vehicle. The insurance company initially claimed zero responsibility for the accident. But when we announced our intentions of taking the case to trial, they suddenly changed their position. The company ultimately decided to pay our client $4,250,000 as compensation for his injuries.

About TBIs

---

Spinal Cord Injuries

An 18-wheeler accident can twist and contort the victim’s body into unnatural positions. Especially dangerous collisions like head-on crashes or underride accidents can bend, twist, or crush the victim’s spine.

The spine serves as the central axis for body movement. Spinal cord injuries can partially or even fully paralyze a person in various areas of the body.

18-wheeler accident victims with spinal cord injuries typically require surgery and complex rehabilitation. But even with surgery and therapy, these injuries can unfortunately have lifetime effects on their overall range of motion.

About SCIs

---

Internal Organ Injuries

A person may experience severe damage to their internal organs if an 18-wheeler collision crushes them inside their car. Common internal injuries damage the victim’s lungs, liver, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, or bladder. Like with spinal cord injuries, internal organ injuries are most common in underride accidents and T-bone pileups.

Injuries to a patient’s internal organs are difficult to operate on and can be life-threatening. Victims may need complex and expensive organ transplants for their best chance of survival and rehabilitation.

---

Amputation Injuries

In severe 18-wheeler accidents, a victim may get their limb crushed between two parts of the vehicle. This can cause irreversible damage to the tissues and necessitate amputation.

The most commonly amputated extremities are in the lower limbs, including the toes, feet, and legs below the knee.

Amputation is always the last resort when doctors know they cannot repair the limb. They may also amputate a limb when the injury poses a risk to the victim’s life, such as uncontrollable bleeding. This decision is not always immediate, like with cases of infection setting into the limb and spreading.

Our client suffered severe damage to her vascular system after a water transport truck hit her vehicle head-on. This damage from the crash later compromised the blood flow in her lower leg. Doctors made the difficult decision to amputate her leg after gangrene (severe tissue death from infection) set in.

Burn Injuries

18-wheelers often transport flammable materials like oil and chemicals. Additionally, these vehicles carry much more fuel than the average passenger car. These factors increase the risk of fires and explosions when a large commercial truck gets into a collision.

Victims can sustain second or third degree burns in the aftermath of an 18-wheeler collision. They may not survive burns covering large percentages of their body, which can happen if they cannot escape their car.

Burn Injuries: An 18-wheeler driver slammed into the back of our client’s car after attempting to read an email. The collision went up in flames, critically burning our client. We later discovered that the trucking company knowingly disabled a lock-out device preventing drivers from using their on-board computers. Days before trial, the trucking company and its insurance companies paid the family of our client $6,000,000. Afterward, they announced they would be locking out thousands of truck computers from use to curb distracted driving.

18-wheeler accidents can also cause injuries that are serious but not life-threatening. These frequently include:

• Broken bones and fractures
• Neck and back injuries
• Rib and torso injuries
• Cuts and lacerations
• Airbag and seatbelt injuries

Sadly, truck accident fatalities can be another unfortunate result of these crashes. Data from the city of San Antonio indicates that 143 traffic fatalities occurred in 2023.

If you or someone you know lost their life or endured any of these catastrophic injuries, consider contacting an attorney. Speaking with one of our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers can get you closer to recovering compensation for your losses.

What To Do If An 18-Wheeler Hits Your Car?

Getting hit by an 18-wheeler may very well be the most traumatic point in your life. It can be hard to see and think clearly in the moments afterward, especially if the crash injured you.

But if you find yourself in this unthinkable situation, here’s what our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers recommend doing first:

Call 911 Immediately

Remember to prioritize the health and safety of you and any passengers in the car with you. Call 911 immediately so they can quickly arrive to assess the crash. Do not flee the scene.

Tell first responders what happened to the best of your memory. Do not make statements that could imply you were at fault, such as apologizing.

If Applicable, See a Medical Professional

Emergency services will immediately check for any critical injuries upon arrival at the scene. They should check you for concussions and ask if you feel any noticeable pain anywhere in your body.

If they tell you to see a doctor, listen to them; they might be saving your life. It can take hours, days, or even weeks for symptoms of a trucking accident injury to appear. Allowing medical professionals to assess your injuries increases your chances of making a full recovery.

Gather Initial Evidence

Evidence collection for an 18-wheeler accident case starts within seconds after the actual crash occurs. Our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers recommend collecting the following pieces of evidence for building the strongest possible case:

18-Wheeler Accident Evidence Checklist

• Contact information and insurance cards from the 18-wheeler driver
• A copy of the initial police report
• Photos of damage to all vehicles involved in the crash
• Photos of the 18-wheeler’s license plate
• Photos of road conditions and any tire marks
• Information on street names or highway mile markers
• Contact information for witnesses

If you are too injured to collect this evidence yourself, see if someone can do so on your behalf.

These pieces of evidence will help our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers hit the ground running when building your case. Always remember that trucking insurance companies will not delay in building their defense case.

Many trucking companies are quick to deploy their “crash response teams” who will immediately start doing damage control. They will work fast to coach the driver, secure electronic data from the truck, and obtain statements that minimize liability.

Gathering evidence from the beginning protects you against insurance companies who attempt to misrepresent what happened.

San Antonio Insurance Companies Aren’t on Your Side

At your most vulnerable state after the 18-wheeler crash, it’s easy to fall prey to an insurance company’s tactics. Use caution when speaking on the record; they can and will use anything you say against you.

Our attorneys have watched insurance companies attempt to extract out-of-context statements from victims to spin the blame on them. We have also seen them use unfair surveillance tactics to manipulate the victim into thinking they are at fault. If you feel anxious or unsure, don’t hesitate to consult our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers with any questions.

We can help reassure you when these companies use their tactics to downplay the accident or deflect blame.

What Are the Rules for Driving 18-Wheelers in San Antonio?

Operating an 18-wheeler in San Antonio comes with strict rules and regulations from both state and federal agencies. Drivers and trucking companies must follow these guidelines for both their safety and the safety of everyone on the road.

FMSCA Regulations

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is the governing agency that oversees all trucking operations in the country. The FMCSA sets and enforces important safety standards to regulate the commercial motor vehicle industry. Key regulations include:

• Licensing: The FMCSA requires all 18-wheeler truckers to have a commercial driver’s license (CDL). CDLs differ from the typical C class license required for driving a normal passenger car. These specialized licenses have varying levels depending on which vehicle the driver intends to operate. Each CDL comes with specific training with thorough examinations designed to test the driver’s knowledge of the vehicle.

---

• Health conditions: An approved healthcare provider must medically clear CDL applicants before they can operate an 18-wheeler. Certain medical complications like epilepsy or vision/hearing loss can make a driver ineligible.

---

• Truck inspections: 18-wheeler drivers have to inspect their vehicles pre-shift. This includes checking the brakes, suspension, steering mechanisms, headlights, reflectors, couplings, safety equipment, and tires. Trucking companies have a corporate responsibility to maintain a written log of inspections and repairs for their fleet.

---

• Size and weight: The FMCSA sets a strict maximum weight limit of 80,000 pounds for any type of commercial vehicle. This includes both the weight of the vehicle and the load it’s transporting. These vehicles typically may not exceed 14 feet in height and 80 feet in length, but some exceptions apply.

---

• Distracted driving: Commercial drivers must adhere to stricter rules regarding hands-free communication. Penalties for texting while driving can range up to $2,750 per violation.

---

• Hours of service: All CMV drivers must maintain a detailed log of the number of hours they’ve driven without breaks. Interstate truck drivers may not drive longer than 14 hours in one day to prevent trucker’s fatigue.

---

The Importance of Hours-of-Service Logs

Truck driver’s fatigue (driving while exhausted) causes many serious 18-wheeler accidents each year. Unfortunately, many truck drivers keep fraudulent logbooks so they can drive more hours than the law allows. We have seen trucking companies turn a blind eye to these practices so their employees can meet tighter deadlines.

To make matters worse, the law only requires these companies to keep Hours-of-Service logs for a limited time. Without them, it can be difficult to prove when a trucker’s fatigue causes your wreck. This is just one reason why quickly contacting a San Antonio 18-wheeler accident attorney greatly helps your case. As soon as you reach out, we can work to secure these logs before they suddenly “disappear.”

---

18-Wheeler Insurance Rules

The law requires trucking companies to carry minimum liability insurance coverage on every vehicle in their fleet. The exact amount of each policy will depend on each vehicle’s weight and load type. Heavier vehicles with hazardous materials will need the most expensive coverage due to the increased risks.

• Commercial trucks < 10,001 pounds & transporting non-hazardous cargo: Minimum insurance coverage of $300,000.
• Commercial trucks Image≥ 10,001 pounds & transporting non-hazardous cargo: Minimum insurance coverage of $750,000.
• Commercial trucks transporting oil: Minimum insurance coverage of $1 million.
• Commercial trucks transporting hazardous cargo: Minimum insurance coverage of $5 million

---

Texas Traffic Laws

18-wheeler drivers must carefully abide by all local and state laws on roads and highways to prevent trucking accident injuries. With vehicles of this size, even common traffic errors can cause catastrophic or fatal crashes. Common errors that can result in tragedy include:

• Speeding: driving over speed limit or going too fast in unsafe road/weather conditions
• Tailgating: following behind a vehicle too closely
• Reckless driving: swerving, making abrupt turns or stops, changing lanes too quickly, texting while driving, etc.
• Violating traffic signals: Running a red light, running a stop sign, failing to yield the right of way, etc.
• DUI: Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
• Other Issues: improper passing, failing to signal, failing to merge, falling asleep at the wheel, etc.

Trucking companies and insurance companies have a corporate responsibility to ensure their drivers adhere to all state and FMCSA regulations. The San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers at our firm can help prove when they breach the rules of the road.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a San Antonio 18-wheeler accident attorney cost?

Our firm never charges you anything upfront. You do not have to pay us a dime until we successfully recover compensation for you. If we win your case, we will only charge a pre-agreed percentage as fee from your settlement or jury award.

---

What if the insurance company offers me instant payment?

It is never wise to immediately accept a sum of money from these companies without consulting legal expertise. Insurance companies will commonly lowball victims with seemingly large amounts, but your 18-wheeler injury claim may be worth much more. Consider speaking with a San Antonio 18-wheeler accident attorney before signing any agreements or accepting settlement sums.

---

What if the insurance company asks me for a recorded statement?

If you were the victim of an 18-wheeler accident, you are under no legal obligation to provide a statement. Refusing to give a statement will not jeopardize your claim. Our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident attorneys are more than happy to represent you and provide any necessary documentation on your behalf.

---

Who is eligible to claim damages in a wrongful death lawsuit?

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 4defines eligible parties for claiming wrongful death damages. According to the statute, the surviving spouse, child, or parents of the decedent may file claims either individually or collectively. A representative of the estate can file on their behalf if no one files one within three months.

---

How long does it take to settle an 18-wheeler accident case?

The length of each 18-wheeler case will differ based on the circumstances. If your case has strong evidence, it’s likely the trucking and insurance companies will settle instead of going to court. Most of our commercial trucking accident cases settle within six months. But if companies refuse to offer a fair settlement, we will not hesitate to take your case to trial. Trial cases take multiple months to a year to conclude. Additionally, there will be a waiting period between the initial verdict and the payout.

---

How much money do you get if an 18-wheeler hits you?

Settlement payouts will depend on multiple factors, primarily on the injury’s severity and your projected future costs. High payouts usually mean you will suffer from the effects of the accident for the rest of your life. Common recoverable economic damages include property damage to your vehicle, lost wages, and future medical treatment. Recoverable non-economic damages include pain, suffering, emotional distress, or loss of enjoyment of life. Our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers have recovered millions in damages in many of our previous cases.

18-Wheeler FAQs

---

What Is the Statute of Limitations in an 18-Wheeler Case?

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003 allows claims up to two years from the date of the accident. The same time limit applies in cases of wrongful death, giving claimants two years after the date of the death.

For minors injured in an 18-wheeler accident, you have until the child’s 18th birthday before the clock starts ticking. This means that you may generally file a valid claim up to the child’s 20th birthday.

However, timelines may look different if the 18-wheeler is a government-owned vehicle. In these cases, you may need to file under the Texas Tort Claims Act. These cases require plaintiffs to file an additional notice of claim within 6 months of the accident.

By quickly contacting our San Antonio 18-wheeler accident lawyers after the accident, we can immediately spring into action. We will help you stay on top of legal timelines and ensure you don’t miss any important filing deadlines.
