Truck Accidents

Remarkably, there are more than three accidents a minute where an American is injured or killed in a truck accident. Thousands of people are injured or lose their lives in truck accidents each year in the United States that involve tractor-trailer trucks, fire engines, and other large commercial vehicles.

The truck driver may have violated a specific statute or regulation with respect to the freight he was carrying or how long he had been driving before the accident.

Most big rig trucks maintain "black boxes" that measure various parameters that can assist the truck accident lawyer and/or truck accident reconstruction expert in determining how the accident occurred.

A lawyer must also consider whether the company that hired the driver may also be responsible under the theory of negligent entrustment or negligent supervision if they failed to properly screen the driver before the accident or if they failed to properly train or supervise the truck driver.
