Large Truck Accidents
The larger a truck is, the longer it will take to accelerate and slow down. As well, it takes longer to maneuver for things such as lane changes, turns, and curves.
Large commercial trucks such as tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, semis, and other large trucks tend to cause larger amounts of damage when they get into accidents. When other vehicles are involved in these accidents, people tend to get injured and unfortunately, it is all too common for death to be the result of a large truck accident.
Driver negligence such as fatigue, distractions, excessive speed, careless or reckless driving, driver intoxication, and improperly or overloaded trucks, are common causes of large truck accidents. If a truck driver is negligent in their behavior and causes an accident where a person is injured and/or property damage occurs, there is a good chance that they, the company that they were employed by, and/or the owner of the truck or trailer, can be held liable for causing harm and damaging property.
