Lawyers for Semi-Truck Accidents

Motorists should be aware of the dangers associated with Semi-Truck accidents. Statistics show that each year thousands of motorists are killed or severely injured by the negligent operation of big rig drivers. Unsafe Semi-Truck driving and oversized big rig loads put the public in extreme danger, causing personal injury and wrongful death. It takes an experienced lawyer to pursue justice in a big rig collision claim. Mechanical failures, reckless driving, and improper driver training accounts for many big rig crashes each year but the overwhelming cause of big rig collisions is driver fatigue. In a recent survey, almost 20% of truckers admitted to falling asleep at the wheel at least once in the previous three months. Truck drivers are driving too many hours without the proper amount of sleep to earn more money for themselves and their trucking company, resulting in preventable big rig crashes. The lawyers at Cook Law Offices, P.C., know this and are vigilant to pursue justice for victims of preventable big rig collisions.

Trucking accident claims involve different rules and regulations than car accident claims. For example, trucking regulations govern the length of time a truck driver is allowed to be on the road. These regulations are intended to keep drivers who are tired or sleepy off the road.

As experienced trucking accident attorneys, we know that most truck drivers are paid either by the mile, the hour or the job; therefore, many truck drivers ignore restrictions on driving time in order to make more money. These truck drivers often keep two sets of driving logs in order to hide their conduct.
