In the United States, thousands of people are killed or badly injured every year in collisions involving large trucks. Truck accidents often result in fatalities or serious injuries due to the size, weight, and speed of the vehicles involved. The average car stands little chance against the typical big truck. And because trucks cannot slow down or stop as quickly as cars, trucks tend to hit cars at higher speeds and with greater impact, leaving the car occupants with devastating and often fatal injuries.

Why Truck Accidents Happen

Driver error is a contributing factor in most fatal crashes involving large trucks. The common reasons for truck accident occurrences due to driver error are:

• speeding
• distraction or inattention
• failure to yield right of way
• impairment (fatigue, alcohol, illness, etc.),
• careless driving
• improper training

Truck accidents with passenger cars tend to result in more serious injuries than collisions between two or more passenger cars. Sometimes the aftermath of a truck accident can stick with a person for life, which is why it is crucial that you receive the money you need to handle your ongoing and future medical and life care expenses. Some common injuries from truck accidents are:
