A tragic New Year’s Day accident in Atascocita left one person dead and seven others injured. I’m sure none of those involved woke up on New Year’s Day and said, “I think I’d better program a couple of Houston personal injury lawyers into my speed dial just in case,” but by the end of the day it’s safe to assume that a few would have been called.

The accident occurred when the driver of an eastbound pickup truck ignored a red light at an intersection, and collided with a semi, which then rolled over, striking a Jeep Patriot and a Toyota Camry. The semi driver died of his injuries. Others were injured to varying degrees.
