The Fundamentals of Truck Accidents
The average truck collision involves a number of different factors. You will be in a better position to submit a claim the more you learn about these kinds of crashes. First, let us go over the fundamental categories of truck accidents, such as big rig, industrial, tractor-trailer, dump, mail delivery, waste, and 18-wheeler incidents.
The way the case is handled will depend on the kind of truck you were in the accident with. For instance, there are distinct safety requirements and standards for a big rig and a garbage truck. Even at modest speeds, a larger vehicle is more likely to cause catastrophic injuries and substantial property damage.

Truck Accidents Can Occur in A Variety of Ways
When people think of truck accidents, they frequently picture a specific kind of collision, although there are many different ways in which they can occur. For instance, a truck could rear-end you at a stop sign, its cargo could spill out onto the road or into the street, you could hit a vehicle head-on in an intersection, or you could suffer a T-bone. The tractor-trailer may jackknife, and in certain situations, the trailer may actually flip over and cause an accident.
We Will Determine Who Is Responsible and At Blame for Your Truck Accident
It is interesting to note that in transportation accidents, the company at responsibility may not be the same as the one responsible for covering your damages, including medical expenses. For instance, if a truck driver was on the job and his employer required them to work longer consecutive hours than was permitted by law, the employer may be held liable.
The firm that loaded the goods may be liable if the problem was that it was not properly loaded onto the truck. Fortunately, you have Law Offices of Fernando D. Vargas on your side since these matters can get challenging. Call us at 909-982-0707 right away so we can determine who is accountable for your accident.
