Truck Accidents

Representing Truck Accident Victims Across the Region

According to recent insurance industry statistics, approximately 1 in 9 fatal auto accidents now involve a large truck. In 2022, there were 5,837 fatalities reported in truck accidents nationwide, a significant increase from previous years. Nearly 70% of those victims were occupants of other vehicles, not the truck. In the El Paso and Las Cruces areas, drivers remain especially vulnerable on busy commercial routes like Interstate 10, Interstate 25, and Route 54. Texas consistently ranks highest for fatal truck accidents, with 650 fatal crashes involving large trucks and buses reported in 2023. New Mexico also faces high risks, with truck-involved crashes accounting for 15% of all fatal accidents in the state in 2022.
