Common Causes
Driver fatigue (long-haul hours), improper cargo loading, mechanical failure, blind spots, distracted driving, speeding to meet delivery deadlines, and inadequate training.
Common Injuries
Due to size and weight differences, truck accidents often cause more severe outcomes: traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, crush injuries, multiple fractures, and in serious cases, life-altering or fatal injuries.
Why These Cases Are Complicated
Multiple parties can share liability — the driver, the trucking company, a cargo loader, even a maintenance contractor. Federal trucking regulations also come into play. This isn't a case to navigate solo.
