Accidents caused by negligent or irresponsible truck driver.

A collision with a large truck is generally one of the most serious types of motor vehicle accidents that can occur. A commercial truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds or more, and it could have the power to literally crush a smaller vehicle in a collision.

Commercial trucks sharing our streets and roadways are a constant presence as trucking companies operate seven days a week and 24 hours a day. Trucks can weigh up to 35 times more than a typical family vehicle, so when a truck is involved in an accident, the results can be devastating. These types of accidents can cause catastrophic injuries or even death. Commercial trucks and truck drivers are held to a higher standard because of the heavy and sometimes dangerous cargo they transport. Trucks often have to meet tight deadlines. Unfortunately, regulations are sometimes violated with innocent motorists suffering the consequences. If you have been affected by a truck accident, it is vital that you seek legal assistance right away from a personal injury attorney to ensure that your rights are protected.

When a truck accident occurs, many parties become involved, including law enforcement, municipal governments, trucking companies and insurance companies. With everyone looking out for their own best interests, truck accident victims are often left feeling powerless. The team at The Olsinski Law Firm, PLLC cares about you as our clients.
