San Francisco Truck Accident Attorney

Tractor Trailer Accidents

The commercial trucking industry operates every day of the week and every hour of the day. Of all of the massive truck sharing our roads, none are larger than tractor trailers which can weigh up to 35 times more than an average passenger car. The accident statistics involving tractor trailers are frightening:

• There are more than 400,000 accidents involving large trucks and tractor trailers each year in the United States.
• Someone is either injured or killed in a truck accident somewhere in the nation every 16 minutes.
• Approximately 3,700 family vehicle occupants lose their lives in truck accidents annually.
• More than 25 % of truck drivers involved in a fatal accident have had a prior conviction for speeding.

The sheer size and bulk of a tractor trailer can lead to devastating consequences when a collision occurs including a higher risk for serious injury than in an average car accident. When a tractor trailer accident happens, many parties immediately become involved including law enforcement, large transport companies and insurance companies all protecting their own interests. Accident victims can be left feeling lost and alone or even bullied by assertive insurance agents attempting to pressure a quick settlement.

Tractor trailer accident cases can be complex.
