What is a Large Truck?

The potential for a fatality accident increases exponentially when a large truck collides with a passenger vehicle. Large truck collisions killed more than 4,000 people in 2017, due to the size and weight difference between a large truck and a passenger car.

A passenger car typically weighs about 4,000 pounds. In comparison, a large truck is any truck with a gross vehicle weight of more than 10,000 pounds. Large trucks can include any of the following:

  • Semi-trucks;
  • Flatbed trucks;
  • Construction vehicles; and
  • Garbage trucks.

Causes of Truck Accidents

The trucking industry is a highly regulated industry in the United States. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration establishes trucking company and truck driver safety guidelines. When drivers and trucking companies bypass mandated safety measures, accidents happen as a result of:

  • Drowsy driving;
  • Distracted driving;
  • Speeding;
  • Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol;
  • Improperly loaded cargo;
  • Faulty vehicle systems or part;
  • Inadequate driver training; and
  • Poor maintenance.

Who is Liable After a Truck Accident?

There are several parties, beyond the truck driver or trucking company, who may be liable for a commercial truck accident. These include:

  • Cargo loaders;
  • Maintenance technicians;
  • The truck manufacturer;
  • A truck parts manufacturer;
  • The owner of the trailer; and
  • The owner of the truck.

Liability is difficult to discover in a truck accident. Ramsey Law Group’s experienced Missouri City truck accident lawyers can analyze your accident records to determine if one or more parties are liable for your injuries.
