An Austin woman was rushed to a San Antonio hospital Wednesday morning after slamming head-on into an 18-wheeler on Interstate 35 in New Braunfels.

Police in New Braunfels said officers received numerous calls about a vehicle headed north in the southbound lanes of the interstate shortly after 3 a.m.

As they headed to the area, the received word that the vehicle had barreled into a big rig headed south.

When emergency responders arrived, they found the wreckage and debris blocking the entire southbound side of the highway.

Police said the woman, 26, was pinned inside of her vehicle, and had to be cut out before being taken to the San Antonio Military Medical Center in critical condition.

The driver of the 18-wheeler was not injured in the crash.

The southbound lanes of the 4200 block of the highway were completely shut down for several hours while authorities investigated the crash.

What Our Clients Say

I want to highly recommend Andrew Traub for doing such a great job on my case. I was always informed of the status of my case. He helped me get some chiropractic treatment which was very important because I was injured. He is extremely dedicated to getting you the best settlement possible. He is very skilled at weeding out members of a jury that could hurt your case as well. If I am ever in an accident in the future he will be the one that I hire to take my case. I will recommend him to all the people I know.
