Finesilver Curve Truck Ban in San Antonio: Why Big Rigs Still End Up on the I-35 to I-10 Ramp—and When Ignoring the Signs Can Support Punitive Damages
Downtown San Antonio’s I-35/I-10 interchange includes the elevated connector ramp most locals know as the Finesilver Curve—the southbound I-35 ramp that carries drivers onto westbound I-10.

A common question I hear […]
Challenging Federal Preemption in San Antonio Railway Crossing Claims
A train strikes a vehicle at a San Antonio crossing. The signals weren’t working. The gates didn’t come down. The lights that should have warned drivers were dark. When an injured person or their family tries to hold the railroad accountable, they almost immediately encounter a legal defense that has nothing to do with what […]

Hit by an App-Based Retail Delivery Driver in San Antonio? What to Know About “Dash-to-Dock” Accidents
Same-day delivery is convenient—until a rushed driver blows through a light on Loop 1604, rear-ends you on I-10, or clips your motorcycle on US-281 while trying to make a delivery window.

The Dashcam Advantage in Texas: Why 2026 Is the Year to Install One (and How It Beats “He-Said, She-Said” Police Reports)
Picture a common San Antonio scenario: a crash at a busy intersection off Loop 1604 or I-10. The officer arrives after the vehicles are moved, both drivers are shaken, and each person tells a different story.

Quick Answer If you’re hit by a large pickup or SUV in San Antonio or elsewhere in Texas, internal organ injuries can be more severe because taller, heavier vehicles often deliver force differently than smaller cars—especially in side-impact and “override/underride” type crashes.

Commercial drivers spend long hours on Texas roads—often on I-10, I-35, Loop 1604, and other high-speed corridors around San Antonio and Bexar County. When a CDL driver has untreated (or poorly treated) obstructive sleep apnea, fatigue can become a safety issue that’s easy to miss until a preventable crash happens. Quick Answer Why Sleep Apnea […]
