Speak to an Experienced Attorney About Improper Loading of Trucks and Truck Accidents
Leading in Illinois Truck Accident Law Since 1996
Dozens of details must be carefully attended to when loading an 18-wheeler so that it can be driven safely. For instance:
- If a load isn't secured properly it can fall or tumble off the truck, striking a person or vehicle or landing in the road and causing another accident.
- If a truck is overloaded and the truck's brakes are poorly maintained, the truck's trailer can jackknife, pushing the entire rig into other vehicles.
- A truck can become unstable or difficult to control of it isn't loaded properly.
Numerous federal regulations are in place to govern the loading of trucks and to prevent accidents, yet trucking companies and freight loaders often fail in their duty to load trucks properly. If you have been injured or have lost a loved one in a truck accident and have questions regarding your legal rights, we can help.
