Semi-truck accidents can be deadly
According to the National Highway Transportation Administration, one out of every 8 fatal crashes on American highways involves a semi-truck. Because trucks usually weigh up to 30 times more than cars, many times the people killed in accidents involving semi-trucks are the drivers or passengers of other vehicles, and not the driver of the truck.
Common causes of truck accidents include:
• Speeding
• Overloading
• Equipment failure
• Tailgating
• Distracted driving, including cellphone use
• Bad weather conditions
• Poor visibility
Truck accident lawsuits can be especially complex and difficult because they may involve multiple responsible parties, including the truck driver, the trucking company, the owner of the trailer, the company leasing the trailer, other negligent drivers, and equipment manufacturers.
In addition, it takes an in-depth knowledge and understanding of a wide range of state and federal trucking laws and regulations. The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero has experience investigating truck accident claims, and we have the resources necessary to get you the results you deserve.
