How Do Truck Accidents Happen?

There are a number of things that could cause a truck accident, but the majority of them are rooted in some form of negligence. Sometimes, it is the negligence of the driver that causes an accident, while other times the driver’s employer or another party may share liability for an accident.

Common causes of accidents include:

  • Violating FMCSA Hours of Service rules
  • Driving while intoxicated
  • Speeding or engaging in other reckless driving behaviors
  • Texting or engaging in other distracting behaviors while driving
  • Transporting an improperly loaded or overloaded trailer
