San Bernardino Truck Accident Attorney
There are more truck accidents in California than most other states. Because a truck is so much larger than a car, injuries from truck accidents are usually much more serious and catastrophic than collisions involving two automobiles. Because truck drivers are operating a vehicle that is maintained by their employer, and possibly loaded by a third party shipping company, there may be more than one party responsible for a California big rig truck accident. Trucking companies and drivers are also subject to regulations established by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which is focused on reducing crashes, injuries and fatalities involving large trucks and buses.
If you have suffered serious injuries or lost a loved one as a result of a truck accident in San Bernardino caused by another party’s negligence, an attorney at the San Bernardino truck accident law firm of Estey & Bomberger, LLP may be able to help you recover significant monetary compensation. You may be entitled to damages for medical bills, rehabilitation, past and future lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Causes of Serious Truck Accidents
Depending on the nature of an accident involving a large truck and a car, there could be a number of possible causes. A San Bernardino truck crash may be a result of:
- A blown tire
- Aggressive driving
- An overloaded truck
- An oversized truck
- Driving under influence of alcohol or drugs
- Failure to yield to other party's right of way
- Falling Debris
- Fatigued driver
- Illegal lane change
- Improper vehicle maintenance
- Inexperienced Driver
- Jackknifing
- Poor highway road maintenance
- Poor visibility
- Reckless driving
- Speeding
- Tailgating
- Unsafe driving in poor weather conditions
- Unsafe passing
Truck Accident Injuries
Most of the serious life-threatening and catastrophic injuries that result from truck accidents affect automobile drivers and passengers, not the truck driver. Truck drivers are more protected than automobile drivers because of the sheer size of a big rig truck or tractor trailer compared to a car. Truck accident injuries may include:
- Burn injuries
- Head injuries
- Multiple bone fractures
- Neck injuries
- Severed limbs
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Other catastrophic injuries
