Establishing Negligence After an Accident
Truckers and trucking companies are held to strict state and federal laws. Even so, many trucking companies pressure their drivers to observe dangerous and reckless driving habits just to meet unreasonable deadlines and make a profit. Accidents involving a semi-truck usually result from the negligence of the truck driver, the trucking company, or a combination of the two.
Studies have shown that the most common causes of truck accidents are as follows:
- Driver fatigue
- Brake problems
- Traffic congestion
- Cellphone use
- Tailgating
- Speeding
- Negligent hiring practices
- Negligent training practices
A serious collision can result in severe back problems, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), fractured or broken bones, permanent disabilities, and even death. For this reason, it’s imperative that you seek out a qualified truck accident attorney as soon as possible. Negotiating with calculating insurance company representatives can be a horrendous ordeal for inexperienced lawyers and laymen. Oftentimes, unrepresented (or poorly represented) victims end up accepting inadequate settlements that fail to cover their medical bills, lost wages, and more.
