What Causes Truck Accidents?

There are many causes of truck accidents. Some of the most common include:

  • Driver fatigue
  • Driver inexperience
  • Speeding
  • Improper turning
  • Failure to yield
  • Cell phone use
  • Drunk driving

In many cases, truck drivers are simply not trained or qualified to safely operate these massive vehicles. Trucking companies are not always careful to make sure their drivers are capable of driving safely, and this can lead to devastating results.

What to Do After a Truck Accident

If you or a loved one have been injured in a truck accident, it is important to act quickly. At KD Trial Lawyers, we know that you may be dealing with a great deal of emotional and physical pain. You may also be overwhelmed by the financial toll that the accident has taken on your life. However, you should not wait to take action against the trucking company responsible for your injuries. If you do, you may lose your right to file a claim.

After a truck accident, you should:

  • Seek immediate medical attention
  • Call the police
  • Keep all of your receipts for expenses resulting from the accident
  • Keep a record of your medical treatment
  • Take photographs and collect other evidence of the accident, your injuries, and the related damages

Types of Damages You Can Recover

In a personal injury claim, you may be eligible to recover compensation for all the losses that you have suffered due to the accident. This type of financial compensation is called "compensatory damages." Compensatory damages are intended to make you "whole" again and help you to recover from your injuries. 

Types of compensatory damages can include:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering

The amount of compensatory damages you can recover will depend on the severity of your injuries and the circumstances of the accident. The more severe your injuries, the more likely you are to recover a large amount of compensatory damages.
