The traffic problems near the Eagle Ford Shale area have been a focus in Texas as reports of injuries are released, and as high-profile verdicts are reached. When a drive shaft broke off a truck traveling for Eagle Ford Shale activity and killed a veteran in 2012, the resulting lawsuit and verdict was big news because it was one of the largest in Texas history. The shale company involved in the suit was recently ordered to pay $281 million for the wrongful death of Carlos Aguilar as it was determined that their negligence in maintaining the truck caused the accident and death of Aguilar.
The problem has become so prevalent that the Texas Department of Transportation began a safe-driving campaign as an effort to improve the traffic situation.
