Common Causes of Truck Collisions

All trucking companies are required to obey federal laws in order to keep truck drivers and others on the road safe. Unfortunately, those driving the trucks do not always follow these regulations, which is a blatant disregard for the wellbeing and safety of themselves and other drivers. A truck collision may happen because the driver has ignored the rule about taking a required rest stop. As they fall victim to fatigue, they may doze off at the wheel and crash into another vehicle. Drivers may also be distracted by mobile devices or disobey speed regulations.

In other cases, the driver may be obeying all the rules appropriately, but someone else was irresponsible in how the truck was loaded or weighed. There could even be a malfunctioning part in the truck that was not properly checked before the driver started the journey. These multiple types of negligence could be devastating for anyone injured in the resulting accident.

The Importance of Making a Truck Accident Compensation Claim

It is critical to make a personal injury claim if you have been involved in an accident with a truck. Even though being involved in any collision is bad, a truck accident tends to have even more devastating consequences simply because a truck is so much larger than a normal car. The increased velocity of such a big vehicle means it is much harder to stop and creates extreme damage in its wake.

Some of the severe injuries caused by a truck accident can include:

• Long-term or permanent damage to the brain
• Trauma to the spinal cord
• Ruptured organs
• Severed limbs
• Extreme injuries to the back and neck
• Damage to soft tissue
• Blindness
• Internal bleeding
• Multiple degree burns
• Broken bones

Supporting You Against Large Corporations

It can be very intimidating if it was not a single truck driver who was the main culprit in causing your suffering, but an entire company. When corporations try to save money by cutting corners, this can have horrific consequences for the victims of truck collisions. These companies will still try to avoid taking responsibility and even attempt to place blame on the victim. To stand up to these large companies, you will need an aggressive trucking accident lawyer in San Angelo on your side.
