Amazon released its earnings report in the first week of February, which included a statement that the company founder was stepping down as CEO. The report revealed that the company is having what media reports are calling “epic” revenue and profitability. Even with tremendous financial returns, all is not perfect in the world of Amazon. With regularity, people from all walks of life find themselves involved in an Amazon truck accident.
The reality of the rise in Amazon truck accidents is illustrated by what has happened in the state of Texas in the past couple of weeks alone. A pair of Amazon truck accidents in Austin and San Antonio in recent days underscore the fact that people are injured as the result of roadway incidents involving vehicles from the world’s largest online retailer.
The San Antonio Amazon truck accident involved a semi “falling off the side of a highway,” according to police responding to the scene. The specifics surrounding the accident are unclear, with the investigation ongoing.
What is known is that the Amazon truck veered into the far righthand lane of North Loop 1604 West at Lookout Road in San Antonio. The truck broke through the guardrail on the side of the road and then “fell” off the highway. The repercussions from the accident were so significant that the eastbound lanes of the highway were closed for a considerable portion of the day.
Two people were sent to the hospital as a result of the San Antonio Amazon truck accident. The condition of the two people injured in the incident is not known at this time. The underlying cause of the accident remains under investigation.

Within the past week, one person was killed in an Austin Amazon truck accident. The investigation into the Austin Amazon truck accident is ongoing. What is known at this time is that an Amazon truck was parked along the side of SH 71 at Austin in the middle of the night.
Between 2:00 and 2:30 in the morning, a motorist slammed into the rear of the Amazon truck. One person was killed as a result of the Austin Amazon truck accident.
The impact between the automobile and the Amazon truck resulted in an immediate and massive fire. The blaze quickly engulfed not only the vehicle that smashed into the truck but the Amazon truck itself.
As a result of the Austin Amazon truck accident, the westbound lanes of SH 71 were shut down for a period of time.
