Types of Converse Truck Accidents

There are many different kinds of truck accidents that happen on Texas roads every day. Some of the most common types of collisions involving large trucks include:

  • Rear-end crashes, since trucks have longer stopping distance
  • T-bone accidents which involve one vehicle striking the side of the other, making the shape of a T
  • Rollover accidents, as trucks have higher centers of gravity
  • Jackknife accidents where the trailer of a tractor-trailer swings to the side
  • Blindspot accidents, as trucks have many more blind spots than standard-size vehicles
  • Tire blowouts
  • Underride accidents when a car goes below the undercarriage of a truck

Many of these accidents can result from driver negligence. These types of crashes also tend to be very serious, especially due to the large size of commercial trucks which can weigh up to 80,000 pounds.

If your crash was caused by a careless trucker, you must know your rights so you can pursue justice.

Understanding Your Legal Rights After a Converse Truck Accident

If you want to make a truck accident claim to recover compensation, you will likely be interested in pursuing a case against the driver who harmed you.

However, as a case called Painter v. Amerimex Drilling I, Ltd explains, in Texas, “an employer is vicariously liable for its employee’s negligent acts if those acts are within the course and scope of his employment.”

Vicarious liability rules allow you to pursue a claim against a trucking company even if that company didn’t do anything wrong directly — as long as the driver who caused your collision was performing work duties at the time of the incident. Since trucking companies may be more likely than individual truck drivers to have a large insurance policy and a lot of assets to pay claims, it’s worth exploring whether holding the company accountable is possible.

You should talk with a Converse personal injury attorney about whether to pursue a claim against the trucking company as well as the driver.
