Pennsylvania Big Rig Collision Attorneys

Big rig accidents have been the cause of many auto accident related injury and deaths. Although the government and trucking companies have worked together to try and make trucking accidents less frequent, they still happen every day.

There are many reasons to why a big rig accident can occur, such as:

• Truck drivers rushing to meet a tight delivery deadline
• Truck drivers are fatigued from driving for long periods of time without a break or rest
• Truck drivers are stressed about delivery times, tired and not paying attention
• Truck drivers are using the cell phone or in-truck radio system to communicate with others ­ whether it be friends, family or employer
• The number of blind spots in a large truck
• Truck drivers not having enough room or driving on a road that does not permit trucks of certain size
• Mechanical failure of truck parts due to lack of maintenance
• Mechanical failure of truck parts due to defective parts
• Truck is overloaded with cargo

The reasons for a truck accident are endless… although the list above refers to trucking accidents where the truck driver is at fault. Vehicle drivers may also be at fault for trucking accidents by not giving the truck enough room, not allowing a truck to pass, riding in the truck driver’s blind spot, and many other reasons.

The laws and circumstances surrounding a big rig accident are complicated and should not be tackled alone. Please call one of the Pennsylvania big rig accident lawyers at Anapol Schwartz for your free consultation today.
