Automobile and 18-Wheeler Incidents
Automobile and 18 Wheeler Incidents or Crashes
Every year thousands of drivers of cars and big rigs are injured or killed by the careless operations of motor vehicles or big rigs. Drivers of 18 Wheelers and the companies they work for are responsible for controlling their big rigs safely and responsibly. While unsafe driving causes many accidents, over sized loads and various other treacherous practices place the public and the truck operators in danger. Often, accidents are caused by lack of attention, carelessness, or negligence of the trucking company. Eighteen-wheeler incidents present unique issues not necessarily associated with a typical motor vehicle incident. These differences include:
- Greater chance of serious injuries or deaths
- Company negligence in hiring and supervision
- Negligent maintenance of the vehicles
- Unique insurance coverage issues
- Governmental regulation
If you or your loved one is the injured party of an 18 wheeler incident or an automobile accident, the Law Office of Patrick H.Yancey will devote every resource necessary to bring you the compensation you ought to have after being involved in such a collision.
