Trucking Accidents
A Tractor-Trailer combined can weigh up to 80,000 pounds legally in the state of California. Anything they collide with does not stand much of a chance of being unharmed.
An important part of any lawsuit is determining who is at fault and you must first determine the cause of the accident. Common causes of truck accidents include:
Driver fatigue
Unreasonable schedules
Improperly loaded or overloaded trucks
Defective equipment
Poorly maintained truck
Lack of driver training and experience
Intoxication
Dangerous weather conditions
Defective roadways
Excessive speed
Negligent drivers of other vehicles
Driver Fatigue
Fatigue is the most common cause of driver error, contributing to about 40% of all trucking accidents. Fatigue alone can cause an accident, and when combined with other factors, the results are often deadly. Any driver that drives over a 150 air mile radius is required by law to have a Electronic Logging Device connect to their trucks. These devices record what time the driver stated his shift, what time the truck was turned on and when they stopped with gps coordinates pinging every 15 min.
