INJURED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER (BIG RIG) TRUCK? CONTACT A LOS ANGELES PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER

Posted On: December 4, 2008 by The Rudman Law Firm, PLC

Getting into an accident with a tractor trailer is often fatal due to the trailer’s size and mass. In addition, tractor trailers have restricted control of their brakes. Many times when a tractor trailer brakes hard, it might already be too late to avoid an accident. Speeding tractor trailers are extremely dangerous on the road because they cannot stop their vehicle in time and their drivers have restricted control over their vehicles. In an accident that happened last year, a speeding tractor trailer caused a pile up that led to three unfortunate deaths.

The accident happened on the interstate 5 freeway. The driver of the tractor trailer was driving faster than 65 miles per hour in the rain when he lost control. The trailer crashed into median and more than 30 vehicles piled up behind the trailer.
