Common Causes

Failure to obtain required oversize load permits
Traveling outside of permitted hours or on unauthorized routes
Inadequate escort vehicles or pilot car procedures
Loads extending beyond the trailer without proper flagging or lights
Wind catching oversized loads and causing the vehicle to sway
Bridge strikes from loads exceeding posted height clearances

Typical Injuries

Fatal injuries from collisions with protruding cargo
Severe crush injuries from fallen loads
Traumatic brain injuries from striking low hanging cargo
Spinal injuries from high speed impacts with wide loads
Amputations caused by contact with heavy industrial equipment on trailers
Burns from electrical hazards when loads contact power lines

How We Prove Liability

Oversized load accidents can involve the truck driver, the carrier, the shipper, and the company responsible for securing the load. Texas requires special permits for oversized loads and mandates specific safety measures including escort vehicles, warning signs, and route approval. Failure to comply with permit conditions establishes negligence, and the catastrophic injuries typical of these accidents often support substantial damage awards.

Texas Legal Framework

Texas Transportation Code Chapter 623 governs permits for oversize and overweight vehicles, including specific requirements for routes, times of travel, and safety equipment. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles issues these permits and sets conditions that carriers must follow strictly. Violations of permit conditions or operation without the required permit constitutes negligence per se under Texas law, simplifying the plaintiff burden of proof on the liability element.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.

While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.

Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.

Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
