Why You Need An 18-Wheeler Accident Lawyer
Shreveport and Bossier, in the I-20 and I-49 corridor, is one of the most traveled areas in the state. 18-wheelers or otherwise known as tractor trailers, commercial trucks, big rigs, etc. travel this corridor at a very high volume. With the higher volume of 18-Wheelers, comes a higher probability of trucking accidents. Commercial trucks can weigh up to 40 tons when filled to capacity and can cause catastrophic damage to a smaller vehicle in a crash.
Common Causes of Truck Accidents Include:
- Driver distraction
- Tired driving
- Drunk driving
- Improper maintenance
- Improper loading
- Improper equipment of commercial trucks
