North Texas Storms Impact North Texas Traffic

Heavy, violent showers last night didn’t just gorge North Texas streams and rivers, but also North Texas roadways today as downed tree branches, wet roads, and, in a few cases, high water impeded traditional traffic patterns.

Slower commutes isn’t the only effect commonly associated with thunderstorms. Unfortunately, storms often cause an increase in automobile accidents. By limiting visibility, adding new obstacles like pelting rain, standing water, and downed branches, and prompting sudden, unexpected stops, thunderstorms decreases safety and significantly increase the incidence of collision.

What should you do if your car was damaged or if you were hurt as a result of a thunderstorm-related automobile accident? Do you have questions about whether you’ll be able to recover from your insurance provider or from the insurance company of the person who struck you?

18-Wheeler Accident Puts Fort Worth Drivers at Risk

Drivers in Fort Worth were put in far greater danger than many realized earlier this week when an 18-wheeler driver lost control of his big rig, turning over and spilling 300 gallons of fuel on the roadway as well as thousands of pounds of lumber. With temperatures and risk running high, everyone involved was fortunate that the combustible situation didn’t turn into a dangerous, destructive, and potentially deadly inferno.

18-wheelers carry not only a lot of weight, but a lot of risk – for drivers and other motorists alike. Although they represent only 3 percent of America’s vehicles, they account for nearly half a million accident annually. Whether a trucking accident is caused by driver carelessness, a tire blowout, or a poorly rigged load, these collisions are often serious for everyone involved.

If you’ve been involved in a trucking accident you may need legal advice as to your rights and possible remedies.
