Northern California Truck Accidents with Injuries

Sacramento County Trucking Accident Attorney

Approximately 1 in 100 motor vehicle accidents occurring in the U.S. involves a collision between a passenger vehicle and a truck, tractor trailer, or other commercial vehicle. That adds up to thousands of truck accidents a year, along with thousands of injuries and hundreds of fatalities.

Truck driver impairments (such as fatigue) play a key role, but other factors can also contribute to truck accidents:

  • Speeding or excessive speed for the existing road conditions
  • Improper loading of the truck, making it difficult to control or maneuver
  • An overloaded and overweight trailer, contributing to braking problems and even brake failure
  • Driver negligence in failing to see cars in the truck's blind spot
  • Driver incapacity due to drug or alcohol use

If you were the victim of a serious trucking accident, or family members died in a collision with a semi, contact an experienced injury attorney at the Weinberger Law Firm. Call 1-(866)-428-2976. Your initial consultation is always free and we can advise you on the important steps to take to protect your rights.

PLEASE DO NOT GIVE A WRITTEN OR RECORDED STATEMENT TO AN INSURANCE COMPANY UNTIL YOU HAVE SPOKEN WITH A LAWYER AND UNDERSTAND YOUR RIGHTS!
