  • Why Truck Accidents Happen

Common Causes Of Truck Accidents

Truck Driver Negligence

Truck drivers frequently violate standard truck driving procedures, such as speeding, driving when fatigued, driving while intoxicated, and failing to drive safely in hazardous weather conditions.

Truck Manufacturing and Design Defect

Truck manufacturers may create 18-wheeler trucks that have been designed and produced incorrectly. Tire faults that cause tire blowouts, brake defects, carriage problems, and latch defects are examples of such defects.

Roadway Defects and Construction Accidents

Truck accidents are frequently caused by road design flaws and highway construction sites. During construction on California roadways, construction personnel frequently fail to post sufficient signage and illumination, resulting in confusion and a greater risk of accidents.

Jackknife Accidents

A jackknife accident involves a truck trying to stop too suddenly causing their brakes to lock up. As a result, the truck slides forming an L-shape resembling a pocket knife, this instance is referred to as jackknifing. According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration over 5000 jackknifing accidents occur resulting in severe injuries and fatalities.
