Texas Truck Accident Lawyer: One Person Injured in a Five-Vehicle Accident Involving Three Semi-trucks on Interstate 20 Near Hideaway Lake, Texas


HIDEAWAY LAKE, Texas – First responders rescued a person trapped inside a vehicle following a five-vehicle crash Thursday afternoon on Interstate 20.

Emergency crews were called to the eastbound lanes, where three 18-wheelers and two passenger vehicles were involved in a collision. Several vehicles sustained significant damage, and one driver became trapped inside their car.

Firefighters extricated the trapped individual, who was then turned over to EMS for medical care.

The condition of those involved has not been released.

All factors that contributed to the collision need to be examined

What happened? Even a small mistake on the road can have enormous, devastating consequences. This is even more true when commercial trucks and passenger vehicles are involved. Most of these collisions are entirely preventable, yet unfortunately, they continue to happen.

To determine all the factors that led and contributed to this incident, we must look beyond the initial police report. Dashcam footage and the truck’s speed and braking data from the black box will provide important information about the events leading up to the crash.

Gathering all the information is needed to hold the responsible parties accountable. A person has suffered injuries, and they will no doubt have life-altering injuries, mounting medical debt, and loss of income. If another driver’s negligence is to blame, this individual deserves full and fair compensation for their losses.

Only a thorough investigation can provide the injured and their family with the answers they need. Skilled Truck accident attorneys can help provide answers and assist with holding the responsible party or parties accountable.

I hope the injured individual makes a swift, full recovery.
