Truck accidents most often happen on the freeway and highway since many do not travel on residential roads. There are often rear-end crashes due to truck drivers inappropriately changing lanes, sideswipes that happen when vehicles try to pass on the right, and head-on collisions that happen when trucks drift into other lanes. Many accidents are caused due to the negligence of the truck drivers; some are on the road for longer than the 14-hour legal limit, and others drive through the night with little to no sleep to meet their deadlines and drop off deliveries. Some drivers are negligent in other ways. Examples include:
Truck drivers are usually in possession of a CDL and have completed training to operate their vehicles. They also have to adhere to more specifics than most cars; for example, on most highways, truck drivers cannot exceed 55 mph and must stay relegated to the right lane. Drivers who break these rules can e fined, but they place others at risk when they go too fast or are not out of the way of other drivers. If you have been hurt in a truck accident, it is important that you take legal action. Our Carson truck accident attorneys are able to help you with your lawsuit and will stop at nothing to win you what you deserve.
A truck accident is often more damaging than a normal car crash. This is because trucks are often traveling at fast speed just like cars are, but they are many times larger. The same exact accident with cars traveling at the same speeds can result in a totaled vehicle in the case with the truck. Because of the vast difference in results, the injuries suffered can also be varied. Many injuries in truck accidents happen to the other drivers, and seldom those in the trucks. Injuries include:
The risk of injuries in truck accidents is high. You may suffer permanent damages; some victims have been relegated to wheelchairs for the rest of their lives, and others have been unable to return to work to complete their job duties. Victims of truck accidents should do all they can to pursue their rightful compensation, and we can help. Talk with our truck accident lawyers in Carson for assistance moving forward with your claim.
Victims of truck accidents are often confused and do not know what to do after a crash. It is important that you do not leave the scene of the accident unless you are injured; even then, you should be treated by paramedics at the scene, and if you need additional or emergency treatment, go to the hospital. Getting medical treatment is also of paramount importance; if you do not get a doctor’s help, you may have a hard time proceeding with your claim. The insurance agent handling your case could se this lack of a hospital visit as a red flag and claim that you were not as hurt as you initially stated. You should collect all the necessary evidence for your case once you have been seen by a medical professional. This evidence can include the following:
Once you have as much evidence as possible, you should get the contact information, insurance details, and business details from the truck driver. You could choose to fiile an incident report with his company if he was working, as well, so you have proof that you took some action or that you were in the accident to begin with It is in your best interest to hire a lawyer who can organize all this evidence for you and will be able to write the best demand letter for your case. If you try to handle the claim alone, there is a big chance that you will not succeed. It is common for insurance agents to throw out claims from customers or not make worthwhile offers. You can rely on a truck accident lawyer in Carson to sufficiently represent you and ensure that you are fairly compensated.

If you wish to file a lawsuit, you must be able to prove that the truck driver acted negligently. To prove negligence, you must show the following:
If you were not physically harmed, you cannot file a personal injury claim. You will only be able to pursue damages related to property damage and lost income. Bear in mind that you do not have an unlimited time to take legal action. If you do not file a claim within the default 2 year limit for personal injury lawsuits, you will be barred from pursuing compensation. The statute of limitations is in place to ensure that your claim does not drag and that you have ample time to assemble evidence and present it to the defendant. If you wait too long, the evidence may get corrupted or witnesses’ memories may fade. You can check to see if you are eligible for any exceptions to the statute of limitations, though. You may have been underage at the time of the accident (statute would begin at 18 years old), left mentally or physically incapacitated after the incident (statute would start after returning to health), or the defendant may have vacated the state (statute would resume when he returns to the state of residence).
