Car and truck crashes take seconds to occur but can have consequences that last a lifetime.  Three million people are injured each year in traffic collisions in our country and approximately 40,000 people are killed.

Every person who operates a car or truck is required to operate his or her vehicle in a safe manner and to obey all traffic laws.  Drivers must not drive in a negligent manner. When a driver fails to operate their vehicle in a safe manner and negligently injures someone, the injured person can recover money damages.

Drivers and passengers can suffer serious injuries when one car collides with another.  However, when a large commercial vehicle collides with a passenger vehicle, the injuries are often catastrophic.

Eighteen wheelers, semi-tractor trailers, dump trucks, and parcel trucks crowd our roadways.  Large commercial vehicles sometimes weigh as much as 80,000 pounds including cargo and can be up to 75 feet in length.  While truck drivers are supposed to strictly adhere with Federal and State laws and operate their trucks in accordance with their company’s rules and regulations, we know that some truckers just do not comply and innocent people get hurt.
