Trucking Accidents

Trucking litigation arises in situations where trucks are traveling in an unsafe manner or are loaded in an unsafe manner, causing injuries to other drivers.  Sometimes trucks on the roads today are unsafe or are being driven by inexperienced drivers, fatigued and sleepy drivers, and even drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

According to the National Transportation Safety Board, the majority of truck related accidents occur on straight, level, dry, paved roadways during typical work week days.  The majority of these accidents don't involve drugs or alcohol.  How then do these tragic and life changing accidents occur on such a frequent basis?  In many instances they occur because truck drivers are pushed to the limit by their employer.  Pushed to drive when they are tired or distracted, drivers go too fast, drive aggressively, or become desensitized to the grave perils they create for the average automobile occupants with whom they share the roadway.
