Truck Rollover Accident Attorney

Dallas-Fort-Worth-Truck-Rollover-Accident

Dallas-Fort Worth Truck Rollover Lawyer

One of the deadliest truck accidents on the road is a rollover crash. Big rig rollovers usually result in complex multi-vehicle accidents that spread ruins over multiple lanes of a highway. When a massive or heavy tractor-trailer rolls over smaller vehicles or blocks the roadway, it can create catastrophic and even fatal injuries. That’s why truckers and trucking companies have a responsibility to operate their automobiles safely to avoid any devastating accident.

When they fail in that responsibility, victims often feel like they are out of options. So, if you are one of them, you need to get in touch with an experienced Dallas-Fort Worth truck accident lawyer to get compensation for damages.

What are the common causes of a rollover truck accident?

While different factors like a trucker’s carelessness or recklessness can contribute to a rollover crash, there are a few common truck crash causes that should be avoided to prevent a rollover truck accident.

Excessive Speeding

Unfortunately, running a truck at an excessive speed to reach a destination more quickly is the most common cause of a rollover truck accident. With deadlines to meet and a shortage of trained drivers to keep up with demand, it’s no surprise that some drivers travel well above the speed limit. Truck drivers should be adequately trained to operate a truck at a safe speed.

Sharp curves

Although roads are designed for all types of vehicles, sharp, sudden curves are usually easier for a smaller automobile to handle than a massive rig. These curves can increase the risk of rollover truck accidents. The trucking company should keep these features in mind while planning out a route for a trucker.

Overloaded trailers

Trucks are meant to tow loads up to a specific weight limit. If the cargo is improperly loaded, piled too high, or imbalanced, it can create a hazardous situation in which a rollover truck accident is more likely to occur.

Who can be held responsible for a rollover truck accident?

Who pays in a truck rollover depends on the nature of the accident. If a rollover truck accident occurs because the trucker is inexperienced, poorly trained, or utterly reckless, under those circumstances, the trucking company will still be liable for the crash. Additionally, the trucking company may also be responsible for failing to maintain the truck or properly load the cargo. If however, the truck accident occurs because of excessive speed and driver’s carelessness, the trucker will be responsible for the truck accident.
