Hurt by an 18-wheeler, garbage truck, or UPS or FedEx truck in Arlington? We handle those Tarrant County cases.
I-30, I-20, SH-360, and Tarrant County Courts
Arlington sits between Dallas and Fort Worth, on the truck routes that connect the two cities and the warehouses south of town. I-30, I-20, and SH-360 carry 18-wheelers past the entertainment district and the distribution centers in the Great Southwest Industrial District. Injury lawsuits from those crashes are filed in Tarrant County courts, including the civil district courts in Fort Worth.
TxDOT's Crash Records Information System (CRIS) recorded 1,716 commercial motor vehicle crashes in Tarrant County in 2024, including 19 fatal crashes and 19 deaths. Arlington does not get a separate county total, because the city is inside Tarrant County. A large share of that freight crosses Arlington on I-30 and I-20 instead of stopping in Dallas or Fort Worth.
The south side of the city is warehouse and distribution traffic. Trucks stage along I-20, turn on and off SH-360, and then break into smaller delivery routes through neighborhoods. That pattern is different from a highway rear-end: more turning movements, more driveway cuts, and more package trucks mixed with shift-change traffic.

Arlington Garbage Truck Accident Lawyer
City collection trucks run Arlington neighborhood streets early, with frequent stops, wide turns, and backing on tight blocks. A side-loader or rear-loader can pull away from the curb into a passing car, or swing across the center line on a narrow street. These are not interstate 18-wheeler cases, but they are still commercial vehicle claims, often involving the city or a private hauler. When a government truck is involved, the deadline to give notice can be much shorter than the usual two-year lawsuit deadline. That notice question is specific to each crash, so it needs a lawyer's review.
Arlington UPS and FedEx Delivery Accident Lawyer
UPS and FedEx crashes in Arlington start at the warehouses along I-20 and SH-360 and end on neighborhood streets. Package cars and step vans stop along Cooper Street, Division Street, and routes between the entertainment district and the south-side industrial parks. They pull out from the curb and turn across traffic all day. FedEx Ground routes are often run by contractors, so the name on the door may not be the company that employs the driver. We identify the carrier and the policy, and Arlington injury cases are filed in Tarrant County courts.
Dangerous Highways & Truck Accident Hotspots
I-30
The Dallas–Fort Worth freeway through central Arlington, including the interchange with SH-360 near the entertainment district. Through-freight and local traffic use the same lanes.
I-20
The southern freight route past Arlington's warehouses and distribution centers. 18-wheelers enter and exit here to reach industrial parks south of the city.
SH-360
State Highway 360, the Angus G. Wynne Jr. Freeway, runs north-south through Arlington and links I-30 with I-20. Trucks use it to move between the highways, the entertainment district, and the industrial parks.
Great Southwest Industrial District
One of the largest industrial parks in North Texas, on Arlington's eastern edge. Distribution trucks use the local streets between SH-360 and the Dallas County line.
High-Risk Locations in Arlington
- I-30 at SH-360, where freeway freight meets entertainment-district traffic
