San Antonio, TX – 18-Wheeler Accident on I-35 Leaves One Injured

San Antonio, TX (July 7, 2020) – A motor vehicle collision early Monday morning left one victim seriously injured in San Antonio. Just before 5 a.m., on July 6, the San Antonio Police Department responded to the site of the collision on Interstate 35.

Reports from the SAPD show that an 18-wheeler and a sedan collided head-on along the southbound side of Interstate 35, near Schwab Road. The collision resulted in a major fuel leak, which closed the main lanes of the southbound side of the highway for an extended period. The driver of the sedan was injured in the accident and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment. At this time, the police in San Antonio are investigating the cause of the collision.

Our thoughts are with the victim injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.

Truck Accidents in Texas

Nearly 20,000 people are injured in automobile accidents every year across the state of Texas. Truck accidents, in particular, send thousands of victims to local hospitals with catastrophic injuries. The size and weight of semi-trucks drastically increase the risk of severe injuries in accidents. This is especially true when accidents involve smaller sedans. When a victim is injured in a collision as a result of another driver’s actions, it is crucial that they reach out to a truck accident attorney in South Texas as soon as possible.
