Truck Accident Stats and Causes
Texas has some of the most dangerous roads and highways. Approximately 440 fatal truck accidents were reported in 2003. According to NCSA, 12 percent of all traffic fatalities involve commercial trucks such as 18-wheelers, semis, and tractor trailers.
Many of Texas’s trucking accidents are caused by truck driver negligence, truck failure, faulty inspection and maintenance. However, truck driver negligence is one of the most common because many truck drivers drive:
- While fatigued
- With oversized trucks
- With excessive speed to meet deadlines
- With improper truck maintenance
- In bad weather conditions
When a trucking accident takes place the truck driver and the trucking company can be sued for injuries and damages.
