Why Truck Accidents Are Different

A fully loaded commercial truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds — approximately 20 times the weight of an average passenger vehicle. When a truck collides with a car, the forces involved are orders of magnitude greater than in car-on-accidente de autos. The resulting injuries are typically more severe, more complex, and more likely to be permanent.

Common Truck Accident Injuries

  • Severe espinal injuries including vertebral fractures and emédula espinal injury
  • Traumatic brain injury ranging from concussion to severe TBI
  • Multiple fractures of the extremities, pelvis, and ribs
  • Internal organ injuries from compression forces
  • Severe soft tissue injuries and traumatic amputations in the most serious cases

Liability in Truck Accidents

Truck accident liability is more complex than accidente de auto liability. Potentially responsible parties include the truck driver (negligence), the trucking company (negligent hiring, hours-of-service violations), the vehicle manufacturer (equipment defects), and the cargo loader (improper loading causing instability). Your PI abogado will investigate all liable parties.
