Car and 18-Wheeler Commercial Truck Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents are the most common personal injury claims in the U.S.

Car and 18-wheeler commercial truck crashes often result in serious physical harm, emotional suffering, and costly property damage.

Car and 18-Wheeler Commercial Truck Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents are governed by the law of negligence. That means drivers must take reasonable care under the circumstances. Failure to do so constitutes negligence and may give rise to liability.

What is Considered Negligent Driving?

Courts weigh multiple factors in determining whether a driver was negligent or intentionally reckless. Depending on the case, these may include:

• Failing to signal

• Driving under the influence

• Improper lane changing or passing

• Driving above or below the speed limit

• Disregarding traffic signs, weather, or traffic conditions

Drivers of 18-Wheeler Business Trucks Are Held to Higher Standards

Truck accidents tend to be much more complicated than car accidents. The sheer size of 18-wheelers increases the likelihood of more serious property damage, life-altering injuries, and even fatalities.

• Unfortunately, it can be difficult for victims and their families to get adequate compensation. Insurers and trucking companies have extensive experience defending injury claims and aggressively pursue minimal payouts and the lowest possible lump-sum settlements.

• That is why it is critical to retain Walker Law Group right after the accident. We can help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
