Large Truck Accidents
Fort Worth Truck Accident Attorney
Statistics show that every year nearly 500,000 large trucks (tractor trailers or semi-trucks) are involved in traffic accidents in the United States. Approximately 5, 000 of these accidents result in fatalities. Generally, the victims of these accidents are those individuals and passengers of the vehicles who are struck by outsized trucks. Typically, the drivers of the monstrous trucks escape unharmed.
Although the Federal government has placed guidelines for tractor-trailer and other larger truck operators to adhere to, truck safety advocates question the effectiveness of these guidelines. Such factors that could relate to a truck operator creating a dangerous condition on the road would be driver fatigue, consumption of alcohol or drugs, failure to control speed while driving, or failure to effectively monitor other drivers on the road.
