Understanding Trucking Accidents
Truck crashes involving large trucks are a significant concern on roadways across the United States. According to the Large Truck and Bus Crash Facts, these accidents often result in severe injuries and fatalities. In 2019 alone, there were thousands of fatal crashes involving large trucks, underscoring the need for stringent safety measures and legal recourse for victims.
Factors Contributing to Trucking Accidents
Several factors contribute to trucking accidents, including:
- Weather Conditions: Adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, and fog can significantly increase the risk of accidents involving large trucks. Poor visibility and slippery roads are common causes of these accidents.
- Number of Trucks: With an increasing number of trucks on the road, the likelihood of collisions with passenger vehicles also rises. The sheer volume of commercial vehicles on highways creates more opportunities for accidents.
- Driver Fatigue and Violation of Regulations: Truck drivers operating under the regulations of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) are required to adhere to strict hours-of-service rules. However, violations of these regulations, including driving while fatigued, are common causes of accidents.
- Driving Under the Influence: Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol significantly increases the risk of truck crashes.
The Consequences of Truck Accidents
Truck accidents can lead to a wide range of serious injuries, including:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): Crashes involving large trucks often result in traumatic brain injuries.
- Spinal Cord Injuries: The force of a truck collision can lead to spinal cord damage, causing paralysis and lifelong disability.
- Broken Bones: Collisions with commercial trucks often result in fractures and broken bones.
- Internal Injuries: The impact can cause internal bleeding and damage to organs.
- Property Damage: Trucking accidents frequently cause extensive property damage. The costs of repairing or replacing damaged vehicles and property can be substantial.
