Every day thousands of motor vehicle accidents occur, and a significant number involve 18-wheelers and other large commercial trucks. These accidents can be caused by driver fatigue, excessive speed, equipment failure, improper loading, and unsafe driving practices. The most severe injuries usually affect occupants of smaller vehicles, who are the most vulnerable on the road. These collisions often result in serious or fatal injuries.
Accidents involving large trucks can lead to devastating outcomes including:
These injuries often require long-term medical care and have lasting impacts on victims and their families.
Lawsuits involving tractor-trailers are complex because the vehicles are typically owned by trucking companies subject to strict federal and state regulations regarding driver training, hours of service, and equipment maintenance. Legal claims may include negligence, wrongful death, products liability, or municipal liability depending on the circumstances of the accident.
