Semi Truck Accidents in Austin

Austin Truck Accident Lawyer

There are 6.3 million traffic accidents that take place on U.S. roads and highways each year. One out of nine of these accidents involve a large truck, such as a semi, resulting in 5,000 fatalities to innocent motorists. A variety of reasons account for these accidents occurring, many of them involving negligence. Overloaded/improperly loaded cargo, reckless or distracted driving by a truck driver, drugs/ alcohol consumption, fatigue, and poorly maintained trucks can all contribute to serious accidents. On top of this, semi trucks have limited visibility and a very high center of gravity, increasing the risk of drivers colliding with smaller vehicles when making sudden maneuvers.

Compensation for your Truck Accident

Semi truck accidents differ from those that involve only passenger cars, as trucks and trucking companies are subject to extremely rigid federal regulations when it comes to their operation. If an accident has occurred following a breach in one or more of these regulations, an attorney may be able to utilize evidence of this breach in securing maximum compensation for the damages you have suffered.
