Why “Big Rig” Accidents Are a Different League.
We’ve all felt that rush of wind when a big semi-truck passes on the highway. Now, imagine being in a crash with one.
An accident with a large truck is not just a "big car accident." The cases are much, much more complicated. Our team knows this because we have handled these serious cases.
Here is a fact from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA): A loaded truck can have blind spots (or "No-Zones") 20 feet in front and 30 feet behind it. If you are in that zone, the driver may not see you at all.
When one of these crashes happens, the truck company sends its own team of investigators to the scene that day. Their job is to protect the company, not you.
That's why you need a team on your side, fast. When we take a truck accident case, we immediately work to get:
● The driver's logbooks (to see if they were driving too long).
● The truck's "black box" data (like on an airplane).
● The company's maintenance records for the truck.
● The driver's employment and drug test history.
These cases are a fight. We are not afraid to fight for families.
