Truck accidents are a serious issue on Illinois highways and interstates.
Trucks weigh roughly 35,000-80,000 pounds compared to that of a car which is only around 5,000 pounds.
The tremendous weight of semi-trucks is what contributes to the high number of fatalities in accidents with cars.
A Collinsville truck accident lawyer is often an expert in this area.
If you or a loved one is injured in an accident, it is important to contact a Collinsville truck accident lawyer immediately.
One call can turn your damages into compensation.
There are, on average, 1.1 fatal crashes per 100 million truck miles driven.
While the process can be complicated, the lawyers at TorHoerman Law are experienced with this type of lawsuit.
There are multiple people and/or companies that could be at fault for the accident, creating a complicated matter.
We will help this process go as smooth as possible by taking the burden of stress off of your shoulders.
This is not very likely as most cases are resolved outside of court.
Most personal injury cases are settled prior to trial.
However, there is still a change either party will not agree to during settlement negotiations which will force a trial.
Truck accidents can be caused by several things, anything from driver error to faulty equipment on the truck itself.
Depending on what caused the accident, there could be more than one person held liable. Due to the complicated nature of truck accident lawsuits, including determining the liable party, reconstructing the accident, and acquiring evidence, it is important to speak with a Collinsville truck accident lawyer immediately following the accident. They will be able to guide you on the next steps to take.
The following recommendations can improve your safety and the safety of others while driving:
In 2017, 4,889 truck accidents resulted in a fatality (wrongful death lawsuit).
This was a 6% increase from 2016, but it is unknown as to why this number is going up as it is often difficult to determine the specific cause of the accident.
Although there was a substantial increase between 2016 and 2017, it is still lower than the 21st-century peak of 5,231 accidents in one year.
116,000 crashes resulted in injuries in 2017, a 4% increase from 2016.
Analyzing the current trends, it is expected that the number of truck accidents will continue rising.
The statistics are frighteningly alarming.
While many accidents are unavoidable, it is important to pay attention to surroundings when driving on roadways, both for you as the driver of a car, and for the driver of a semi-truck.
Proving liability is one of the first steps in a truck accident lawsuit. However, it can be increasingly difficult if there are many factors involved.
For instance, the accident occurred on a rainy night making roads inherently more dangerous.
The tractor-trailer hit your vehicle while you were stopped at a red light.
At an immediate glance, it would seem that the weather conditions contributed to the accident because the roads were slick.
But, what if the driver of the truck failed to be cautious in the rain and did not step on the brakes as far in advance as he should have? Or, it could even be plausible that there was an equipment malfunction and the brakes stopped working completely.
The complexity of the accident is a reason enough to speak with a Collinsville truck accident lawyer. They will be tasked with looking at all of the evidence and determining who should be held responsible for your damages, either compensatory or punitive.
Responsible parties can include but are not limited to, the driver of the semi-truck, the trucking company where the driver is employed, the company that provided maintenance for the truck, or even the manufacturer of the truck itself.
A Collinsville truck lawyer can help you understand the civil lawsuit process and answer any questions that you may have.
If a truck accident does occur, it is likely there will be serious injuries.
It is important to immediately seek medical attention for any injuries, even if you do not believe you were injured.
There could be internal injuries that you may not be aware of, and a medical exam could end up preventing further injuries or even saving your life.
After receiving medical treatment, contact a Collinsville truck accident lawyer.
A personal injury lawyer can help you receive compensation for the damages you have suffered, including injuries, medical bills, rehabilitative treatment, wages lost during recovery, and even emotional pain and suffering.
It’s important to keep records of these things since they can be used as evidence.
A truck accident attorney can also teach you about the following topics if they pertain to your case:
