The Unique Challenges of Texas Department of Transportation Accidents in New Braunfels
Comal County reported 2,997 crashes in 2022, according to the Texas Department of Transportation, with I-35’s frequent roadwork zones contributing to the accidents. TxDOT-related crashes often involve:
- Roadwork Zone Hazards: Poorly marked construction zones or inadequate signage on I-35 and Loop 337.
- Texas Department of Transportation Vehicle Collisions: Maintenance trucks or equipment causing crashes due to driver error or negligence.
- Contractor Negligence: Third-party contractors failing to maintain safe work zones.
- Debris or Equipment Issues: Loose gravel or unsecured machinery leading to accidents.
Claims against Texas Department of Transportation face unique hurdles, like shorter filing deadlines under the Texas Tort Claims Act and government immunity protections. Our team navigates these complexities, using evidence like work zone logs and accident reports to build your case.
Compensation for Texas Department of Transportation Accident Victims
Texas Department of Transportation accident victims may be entitled to compensation, including:
- Medical Expenses: Emergency care, surgeries, rehabilitation, and future treatment.
- Lost Wages: Income lost from missed work or reduced earning capacity.
- Pain and Suffering: Physical pain and emotional distress from the accident.
- Property Damage: Repairs or replacement for your vehicle.
- Punitive Damages: In rare cases of gross negligence, such as willful safety violations.
Texas’s comparative fault rule allows recovery if you’re less than 51% at fault, but government entities like Texas Department of Transportation often shift blame. We use evidence like traffic cam footage and contractor records to maximize your compensation.
