Causes of Truck Accidents
It takes longer for large commercial trucks to stop. For this reason alone, they are among the most dangerous vehicles on the road. Trucks are heavy. The stopping distance gets longer as the vehicle gets heavier. In addition, trucks have blind spots, and truckers are always in a hurry. Truck accidents can be caused by drivers who are:
- Fatigued
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Poorly trained
- Operating unsafe equipment
We believe the trucking industry must be held accountable for this unprofessional and dangerous negligence.
In our region, there are a number of trucks associated with the oil and gas industry on our roads and highways. In our experience, these truckers are usually in a hurry, whether driving a tanker or a flatbed carrying petroleum industry equipment. We are unconvinced that the industry cares about the danger of truck accidents that excessive speed causes.
Contact a Truck Accident Attorney
We have dedicated our law firm to representing victims of truck accidents through personal injury and wrongful death actions. We never promise a strategy or an outcome. We will discuss your case specifically with you. In general, the negligence of the trucking industry may entitle victims to seek compensation for medical bills, for pain and suffering, for the loss of wages and for property losses. A wrongful death is death caused by someone else’s negligence. In the grievous event of death in truck accidents, the survivors have the right to seek compensation for medical bills, burial expenses, loss of companionship, grief of children or parents or spouse, and for the pain or suffering the late victim may have gone through before he or she died.
From the start our firm prepares to take your case to trial. In our experience, the insurance companies know the firms that are not afraid to take their arguments before a judge and jury. This can result in a fair settlement. We have a known track record for a willingness to go to court to seek compensation for trucking industry negligence that resulted in truck accidents. We will discuss with you the options for trial and settlement, and the decision is yours. We believe our job on your behalf is to evaluate a case, and demand fair compensation. We don’t believe in simply accepting the highest offer. Our job is to see that you are treated fairly. Call us toll-free at 800-304-9246 for a free initial consultation.
