Common Causes Of Commercial Truck Accidents
Accidents involving commercial vehicles are, fortunately, less common than typical car accidents. Still, a variety of factors can cause them. Some of the most common are:
- Driver fatigue
- Distracted driving
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Improper vehicle maintenance
- Overloaded or improperly loaded cargo
- Inadequate driver training
- Driving under the influence
- Poor weather conditions
- Defective vehicle parts
In our personal injury practice, our personal injury attorneys have seen cases involving all of these causes. These accidents are often preventable. They frequently result from negligence. We thoroughly investigate each detail to determine liability and pursue fair compensation for our clients.
What Makes Commercial Truck Accidents Different?
Commercial truck accidents are significantly more complex than typical car crashes. These incidents often involve multiple parties, including the driver, trucking company, vehicle manufacturer and cargo loaders. This complexity can lead to challenging liability disputes. Additionally, commercial vehicles are subject to specific federal and state regulations, which can impact your case. Insurance policies for commercial vehicles typically have higher coverage limits, but insurance companies fight these claims aggressively to minimize payouts. The accident scenes are often more complex, requiring extensive investigation and reconstruction. Injuries in commercial vehicle accidents tend to be more severe due to the size and weight of the vehicles involved.

We employ a team of experienced professionals, including accident reconstruction specialists and medical experts, to build a comprehensive understanding of the incident.
