Texas Trucking Accident Attorneys and Their Guidance after a Truck Accident Throughout the country, accidents on the road are a shattering force that can lead to a lifetime of unparalleled sorrow and a lifetime of injuries to come back from. Every day there are hundreds of traffic accidents with the majority of them leading to injuries, from minor to seriously devastating injuries, to thousands of families and people. If the accident involves a commercial truck (also known as a tractor trailer, big rig, eighteen wheeler, etc…) then the consequences are multiplied quickly.
An accident that involves a commercial truck will be more catastrophic than those that involve any other vehicle for a large number of reasons:
When it’s fully loaded, a commercial truck can weigh up to or over 80,000 pounds. When comparing this to the 2,500 to 3,000 pound average weight of a smaller vehicle you can begin imagining the devastating consequences of a trucking accident and the types of damage that they can inflict.
With the bulk and the large size of commercial trucks, they’re extremely difficult to maneuver and turn with the precision of a smaller vehicle. If there’s error, even the slightest of errors, on the part of the truck driver and/or a stretch of road conditions that are even the smallest bit unfavorable can lead to a truck rolling or jackknifing. These factors and others can result in an accident that can turn the life of trucking accident victims upside down in a heartbeat.
