Truck accident cases can be highly complex and require an in-depth investigation in order to determine the cause and identify those at fault. Many factors can contribute to a serious truck accident, including:

  • Driver fatigue due to insufficient break time
  • Speeding violations and speed governor tampering
  • Oversized load or shifting loads
  • Unsafe lane change
  • Driver impairment due to alcohol or drugs
  • Maintenance issues and equipment malfunction such as tire blowout or brake failure
