Tampa Truck Accident Lawyers
Personal Injury Attorneys in Tampa for Truck Accident Victims
Estimates of trucks operating in the United States stand at over 15 million,
out of which 2 million are tractor trailers. Close to 5,000 people are
killed in truck accidents every year; the overwhelming majority of these
are those victims in smaller passenger vehicles. Commercial trucks, including
semis, big rigs, tractor trailers, and others pack a wallop when striking
another vehicle due to their vast length and weight, which increases substantially
at higher speeds. Truck accidents may be caused by driver fatigue, illegal
driving maneuvers, speeding, poor driver training, poor truck maintenance,
improperly loaded trucks, or may be alcohol or drug-related.
