Trucking Accidents


The trucking industry generates revenue exceeding 600 billion dollars annually. That number is expected to double by 2015. The terrible consequence of all that profitable activity is often catastrophic injury or the loss of human life. There are on average more than 500,000 trucking collisions in the United States every year. The weight of many of the truck-trailer combinations involved exceed 80,000 pounds. It is therefore not surprising that one in every eight fatality accidents involves a trucking collision. Because of this danger, trucking companies and their drivers are subject to special commercial truck driver and carrier laws and regulations specifically aimed at protecting the public.
