Semi-Truck Accidents

What makes semi-truck accidents so deadly is that these collisions are often multiple-vehicle accidents and can be much more serious due to the size and weight difference between trucks and passenger cars. When these semi-trucks, 18-wheelers, big rigs, or semi tractor-trailers collide with a passenger car or other commercial vehicle, the result is often catastrophic injury or wrongful death.

Whether due to driver error or faulty equipment, other contributing factors may include:

• Jack-knifed trailers
• Rear-end collisions
• Equipment falling off semi-trucks
• Insufficient training and rest for truck drivers
• Unsafe passing
• Unbalanced loads
