What Causes Trucking Accidents?

Truck accidents can occur due to various factors, and understanding their causes is important for improving safety and preventing future incidents. Some common causes of truck accidents include:

  • Driver error: Driver-related factors contribute to a significant number of truck accidents. This includes actions such as distracted driving, fatigue, speeding, aggressive driving, impaired driving (due to alcohol or drugs), inadequate training, or failure to follow traffic laws.
  • Equipment failure: Mechanical failures in trucks can lead to accidents. This includes brake failures, tire blowouts, steering malfunctions, faulty lights, and other issues related to the truck's components. Inadequate maintenance or improper repairs can also contribute to equipment failure.
  • Poor weather conditions: Adverse weather conditions like rain, snow, fog, or ice can increase the risk of truck accidents. Reduced visibility, slippery roads, and longer stopping distances can make it challenging for truck drivers to maintain control and respond to potential hazards.
  • Improper loading or cargo issues: If a truck is not loaded properly or if the cargo is not secured correctly, it can result in accidents. Shifting cargo can affect the truck's balance, stability, and handling, leading to loss of control and potential rollovers.
  • Construction zones: Construction zones present unique challenges for truck drivers due to narrow lanes, lane closures, reduced speed limits, and changing traffic patterns. Inattentiveness or failure to follow posted signs and instructions can cause accidents in these areas.

Why Do I Need a Truck Accident Lawyer?

Truck accident cases can be complex due to various factors, such as federal and state regulations specific to the trucking industry, the involvement of multiple parties, and the need for expert analysis of accident reconstruction or truck maintenance records. Our truck accident attorneys in Boca Raton have the experience to navigate these complexities and work towards securing the best possible outcome for our clients.

The following are just a few things that our truck accident lawyers can help you with:

  • Investigation: Conducting a thorough investigation of the accident scene, collecting evidence, and gathering relevant information such as police reports, witness statements, and photographs.
  • Liability assessment: Determining liability by identifying all potentially responsible parties, such as the truck driver, trucking company, maintenance providers, or manufacturers.
  • Legal guidance: Providing legal advice and guidance to clients, explaining their rights and options under the law, and assisting them in making informed decisions.
  • Negotiation and settlement: Negotiating with insurance companies and other parties involved in the accident to reach a fair settlement that compensates the injured party for medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
  • Trial representation: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing the client in court and presenting a strong case to seek fair compensation through a trial.

You should never attempt to pursue a truck accident claim on your own. The million-dollar insurance companies that represent truck drivers and their employers have almost unlimited resources at their disposal – resources that are determined to either invalidate or greatly diminish your claim. You need your own experienced legal counsel that can agressively fight for every penny of compensation you are owed.
