Surviving Family Members of this Semi-truck Crash Deserve Answers and Justice

What a sad, sad incident that could happen to any of us. Why was a semi-truck driving on the wrong side of the roadway? The family who lost two loved ones in an instant deserves answers.

We have handled many cases like this where driver error or a mechanical issue caused a catastrophic collision. In one incident, a tractor-trailer driver was allegedly speeding when he lost control, crossed the median, and collided head-on with a passenger vehicle. The violent impact led to an explosion and fire and fatalities.

Through our investigation, we uncovered that this tragedy was entirely preventable. The trucking company failed to train and supervise the driver properly and neglected to enforce basic safety protocols. But even with all these failures, the company attempted to avoid responsibility.

But we fought for the family who lost their loved ones. We fought to hold the trucking company accountable for its gross negligence. And we fought to make sure the truth about what happened could no longer be ignored.

The surviving family of Ms. Patricia Segundo de Olvera and Mr. Enrique Olvera deserves that same justice. They deserve to demand answers and hold those responsible accountable. May their family find the strength and support they need to move forward.
