Injured in an Underride Accident?
Speak to Our Tampa Personal Injury Lawyer
An underride accident occurs when a motorcycle or passenger vehicle becomes
lodged under a commercial truck's underride guard. Each year, there
are approximately 350 underride accidents in the United States. The Department
of Transportation requires all commercial vehicles to install a rear impact
guard in order to prevent future accidents with passenger vehicles and
motorcycles. Despite the government's best efforts to make the roads
safer, these rear guards are prone to failure when a vehicle hits the
commercial truck at more than 35 miles per hour. There are numerous reasons
why these kinds of accidents occur.
Some causes of underride collisions can include:
- Distracted drivers
- Jackknifing trucks
- Merging trucks
SUV's, motorcycles, and cars are not built to withstand the pressure
of being pulled underneath a truck, and can result in catastrophic injuries
for drivers. If you have sustained moderate, serious or catastrophic injuries
from an underride accident caused by another individual, retain our legal
representation immediately.

security and will exhaust all our available resources to help you. If
