DEBRIS ON ROADWAYS CAUSING ACCIDENTS AND INJURIESThe problem can be cured by people properly securing their loads when driving. Unfortunately, people are not securing their loads and we see debris on highways much more often than should be the case.
Texas Transportation Code Section 725 states that any motor vehicle, trailer, or semi commits an offense in Texas if they transport loose materials and their vehicle has a hole, crack, or another opening where material can escape. The loose load should be covered and secured front and back. Section 600.001 states that a person who permits injurious or destructive material to be dropped on the highway shall immediately remove the material.

LIABILITY FOR UNSECURED LOADS THAT CAUSE INJURIESIf a driver allows debris to cause a car accident injury, then that driver has violated their duty of reasonable care. They owe for any damage they have caused, including any injury caused. Their liability insurance covers the auto accidents that they cause. The Law Office of Doug Goyen has over 20 years of experience working as a Dallas car accident lawyer and getting compensation for those injured by debris on roadways. Contact us today for a free consultation and strategy session regarding your case.
DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR INJURIES CAUSED BY DEBRISWhat types of compensation are available if you are injured in a car accident caused by debris? In most cases, victims of personal injury will be awarded both economic and non-economic damages. The specific damages available to you will be determined by the severity of your accident and the specific injuries you sustain.
Economic damages are paid to compensate you for the financial costs incurred as a result of an accident. These can include both your current out-of-pocket expenses and any reasonably anticipated costs. Medical expenses, nursing care, property damage, and lost wages during recovery are all examples of economic damages.
Non-economic damages are paid to compensate you for injuries and harms that do not have a monetary cost. These injuries are notoriously difficult to quantify, which is why a monetary award can vary greatly from case to case. Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life are examples of non-economic damages.
