Harris County plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed this month allege that in 2007 a truck driver fell asleep while driving and crashed into the back of a vehicle, injuring two men.
The truck driver, Brandon L. Dover was driving a truck for WB&B Enterprises along Texas Highway 73 when he allegedly fell asleep. Dover’s failure to control his speed caused him to crash into the plaintiff’s car, seriously injuring them.
The injured men, driver Victoriano V. Varelas and passenger Bartolo Santos, filed a lawsuit against the trucking company and the driver. The lawsuit states that Dover failed to keep a proper lookout, failed to apply his brakes, drove too fast for road conditions, failed to maintain a reasonable distance between himself and the car in front, fell asleep at the wheel, and failed to control his speed.
The plaintiffs claim that as a result of the accident they have suffered physical pain, mental anguish, physical disfigurement and physical impairment. They also incurred property damage, loss of use, and costs for repair.
In addition the men claim to have incurred medical costs and have lost their earning capacity, household services, and wages. These damages are expected to continue into the future.
The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages, pre-and-post-judgment interest at the maximum rate allowed by law, costs and any other relief to which they should be entitled.
