If you think about it in the most logical way possible, truck accidents (and other vehicle crashes) are simply bound to happen. Roadways here in Pennsylvania and the rest of the country are clogged with motor vehicles of all kinds, including massive tractor-trailers. Chances are you or someone you know will eventually experience a vehicle accident. If the vehicle is a large and heavy commercial truck, serious injuries are very likely to occur.
Many people wonder how it is possible that so many truck accidents still occur despite widespread awareness about trucking safety. A group of participants in a nationwide study has some answers. The group looked at truck accidents that occurred from 2015 through 2017 and came up with some disturbing results.
One way the nation can make a difference in the volume of truck accidents that occur is by holding all responsible parties to account. Often, this means pursuing a personal injury claim, which hits negligent truckers and trucking companies where it hurts the most–their wallets and bank accounts. Such a legal solution can also make sure you or your severely injured loved one acquires enough financial compensation to ensure recovery.
