Atlanta, Georgia - March 31^st, 2025 – Trucks can be the most destructive vehicle on the road. Because of their massive size and weight, a truck accident can cause severe injuries. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, contact a truck accident attorney from Evans Litigation and Trial Law, LLC  as soon as possible.

What causes truck accidents?

The cause of a truck accident is one of the most important aspects to identify because it provides evidence of liability. Typical causes include the following:

• Working long hours: Federal regulations establish time limits for truck drivers to be on the road.

• Drugs or alcohol: A truck driver’s faculties become impaired when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

• Maintenance issues: Neglected or improper maintenance of trucks can cause serious problems, including accidents.

• Distracted Driving: Anything that takes a driver’s focus away from driving can lead to an accident.

• Violation of traffic rules: Any traffic violation, such as speeding or improperly changing lanes, increases the risk of a truck accident.

Weather conditions can also cause truck accidents. Poor visibility from rainstorms or slippery roads are common culprits. Collisions involving 18-wheelers, semi-trucks, and other large commercial vehicles often result in severe injuries, life-altering consequences, and even fatalities.

Truck accidents can also lead to significant medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term rehabilitation needs. Victims often struggle with the financial burden of recovery, especially when insurance companies attempt to settle for less than they deserve.

Our firm understands the devastating impact a truck accident can have on victims and their families, and we are committed to securing the best possible outcome for each client.
