San Diego Truck Accident Attorney
Truck Accident Cases in San Diego
Commercial trucking is a vital part of our economy and our nation, but it also presents a real and present danger to motorists who travel on the same roads. Semi-trucks can weigh up to 80,000 pounds - more than 16 times the weight of an average SUV and more than 20 times the weight of an average compact or midsize vehicle. These massive vehicles reach 75 feet in length, considerably dwarfing even larger passenger vehicles.
Given the size and weight of tractor trailers, it is unsurprising that accidents often result in unmitigated tragedy. Motorcyclists, bicyclists and pedestrians are exceptionally vulnerable against commercial trucks. Catastrophic injuries to the brain and spinal cord, as well as burns and lacerations, are frequent consequences of truck accidents. Despite comprising only a fraction of a percentage of total collisions, truck accidents annually account for more than 12% of motor vehicle fatalities.
