Accidents on the road can be extremely dangerous but when you are the victim of an accident involving a large truck, it’s likely that you may suffer catastrophic injuries. Most four-door cars and small trucks weigh between 2,500 and 5,000 pounds, but large fully loaded 18-wheeler can weight upwards of 80,000 pounds. Due to the immense size of 18-wheelers and other commercial-sized vehicles, you’re lucky to survive such an accident but may need expensive and sometimes painful surgery, physical therapy, nursing care for recovery and long-term care.
While they may be operated by professional drivers, even professional drivers make mistakes and can wreak havoc for others traveling on the same roads. To make matters more difficult, trucking companies and their insurance carriers have teams of investigators available to begin building a defense almost immediately after an accident. While you may be recovering from your injuries in your home or at the hospital, they are out building their case. The sooner you can get an experienced legal team on your side, the better chance you will have at getting justice.
