 18-Wheeler Trucking Accidents and Injuries

We hear or read the phrase "trucking accidents" so frequently that we rarely consider the devastating effect such an event has on human lives-especially on the occupants of non-commercial vehicles involved in the mishaps. A close look at the number of trucking injuries can only hint at the tragedies resulting from the one-half million annual collisions involving large trucks and other vehicles or pedestrians in this country alone. This averages out to an unbelievable 1,370 occurrences daily!

We don't seem to get too alarmed in learning that about 1% of all 18-Wheeler accidents result in fatalities unless we translate that into the significant number of 5,000 lives lost each year. In fact, 18-wheeler trucking accidents account for one of every eight traffic fatalities. Following an 18-Wheeler accident, you'll have serious questions. What about rent, utilities, car payments, food, clothes, soccer uniforms and prom dresses?

18-wheeler drivers are typically required to work long hours with little or no sleep.  
   
More than 10% of all traffic deaths are caused by 18-wheeler accidents. That's more than 5,000 deaths per year!  
   
Although it's illegal, drivers often alter their delivery logs so they can cover up how many hours they spend on the road.
