It’s an unfortunate fact that truck accidents are on the rise on our Texas highways, particularly in the Gulf Shale area. Note the following statistics:
Total traffic accidents have increased 11% from 2009 to 2013
Accidents involving commercial vehicles have increased 105%
Fatal traffic accidents are up 21%
Fatal accidents involving commercial vehicles are up 247%
This information clearly shows
that companies are putting Texans in the Gulf Shale area at risk as we travel to and from work, our homes and our schools while they use our highways to do business. The influx of oil and gas companies in the area and increased traffic are literally destroying people's lives while their industry sees record breaking profits. While we sincerely hope your family hasn’t been affected aversely by these companies if you have, it’s of utmost importance that you take quick action to counteract these large corporations who have entire legal teams devoted to minimize their risk. You need someone on your side with the drive, passion and audacity to fight these companies on your family’s behalf. If you or a loved one have been injured call attorney Paula Wyatt today.
