Tractor-Trailer Injury
|
|
Tractor-trailers also known as 18-wheelers or "semis" account for thousands of accidents
in the United States every year. Because of the enormous mass, weight and speed
involved in these collisions they often result in serious injury and/or fatality
to smaller family vehicles.
Truck driver fatigue, carelessness, speeding, drinking, and/or lack of courtesy
can contribute to fatalities and serious injury to the general public. The pressure
to meet delivery deadlines can often lead to inadequate maintenance of the tractor-trailers.
Overloading the vehicles, under or over inflating the tires and failing to maintain
the brakes, brake lights and running lights can all contribute to accidents.
