Mesquite, TX (June 6, 2022) – A vehicle collision reported in the Mesquite area sent several people to area hospitals with injuries. Just after 6:45 p.m., on May 29, emergency crews were notified that an automobile accident took place on Interstate 20 that required assistance.
According to reports, a Chevrolet SUV was traveling on Interstate 20 when it began to slow down due to a piece of furniture in the roadway near Lawson Road. As a result, an 18-wheeler crashed into the back of the Chevrolet. The impact of the crash caused the Chevrolet to strike a Ford SUV. The Ford and the semi-truck then overturned.
One person inside the Chevrolet was transported to a local hospital for the treatment of injuries. A victim inside the Ford, a 48-year-old man from Crandall, was transported to a local hospital with serious injuries.

Truck Accidents in Texas
Motor vehicle accidents happen far too often in the state of Texas. In fact, at least one person is injured every two minutes in our state as a result of a traffic collision. Even though many people end up with minor injuries as a result of their accidents, we see tens of thousands of people hospitalized with serious injuries that demand emergency medical care.
Quite often, victims suffer from spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and even broken bones. These and other serious injuries can force victims into area hospitals where they remained for several days or even weeks as they recover. Having to go through months of therapy and rehabilitation can be incredibly challenging. In many cases, injured parties are able to pursue legal action against the person who caused them harm.
