Common Factors Leading to Truck Accidents

Truck accidents can stem from a variety of contributing factors, including:

• Driver Fatigue: Prolonged hours on the road may induce driver fatigue, compromising a truck driver’s ability to respond promptly to changing conditions.
• Speeding: Excessive speed is a prevalent factor, challenging drivers to bring their vehicles to a halt in time to prevent collisions.
• Distracted Driving: Distractions like texting or mobile phone use can divert a truck driver’s attention away from the critical task of navigating the road.
• Improper Maintenance: Neglected maintenance, such as faulty brakes or tires, increases the likelihood of accidents due to mechanical failures.
• Impaired Driving: Operating a truck under the influence of alcohol or drugs impairs a driver’s judgment and reaction time, elevating the risk of accidents.
• Overloaded Trucks: Trucks carrying an excess of cargo may become unstable, heightening the risk of rollovers and other accidents.

What to Do After a Truck Accident

1. Prioritize Your Health: Seek immediate medical attention, even for seemingly minor injuries.
