Trucks these days are almost everywhere you turn. For almost every mile of road in America, there is a truck. 

These trucks are vital to our system of commerce however, with that we have unleashed a significant danger to drivers. The average truck driver is under significant pressure to deliver loads under tight deadlines and most of them having to carry the burden of all the costs associated with moving the load, such as fuel and repairs. 

With these pressures, drivers are forced to cut corners and falsify driving logs. This dangerous mix of financial pressures and pressure to deliver goods under tight schedules, along with the fact that an average fully loaded truck can weigh over 80,000 pounds, creates a severe danger to everyday drivers on the road.

When trucks collide with automobiles, more often passenger vehicles are in various states of being totally damaged. Victims of truck accidents are usually left with significant damages and in some cases, victims were brought to the brink of death.

Victims of trucking accidents must know that handling a truck accident case is nothing like an auto accident. Trucks are regulated by various levels of Federal and state regulations and there are many different entities involved. 

There is the truck driver, the truck owner, the trailer owner, the entity leasing the truck, the company that loaded the cargo, and so forth. To properly litigate these cases, an attorney must be able to navigate all these entities and get the best result for the client. 

These cases are not like auto accidents and any victim of a trucking accident should seek an attorney capable of addressing the unique nature of these cases. Contact Rudez PL for a free consultation with Attorney Dan Rudez.
