Pearland 18 Wheeler Accidents Attorney
While drivers of large trucks do their best to be safe on the road, when accidents happen they’re often devastating. According to the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA), “One out of nine traffic fatalities in 2008 resulted from a collision involving a large truck.”
Semi-truck accidents can happen for many reasons, including things like:
- Driver inattention
- Mechanical malfunction
- Poor road conditions
- Driving too fast for conditions
- Failure to follow safety guidelines
- Cargo loaded improperly
- Drunk or impaired driving
Oftentimes, it takes careful investigation of an accident by an attorney intimately familiar with the complex rules and regulations of the trucking industry to determine if a truck driver was at fault for an accident.
When you have been seriously injured or have lost a loved one due to a truck driver’s negligence, you may be able to seek damages for your injury and/or loss in court. It is important to speak with an experienced 18-wheeler and semi-truck accident attorney as soon as possible after your accident to make sure your rights are protected and you do not say something or do something that could harm your case.
