Holding negligent commercial vehicle operators accountable

brewer-resources-headers-7_1_orig

Collisions involving commercial vehicles such as semi trucks, vans, buses and tractor-trailers often result in devastating injuries and wrongful deaths for victims traveling in cars. To make matters worse, large carriers and companies are almost always prepared to rush to the scene to manipulate the investigation and collect evidence that can be leveraged against the driver of the passenger vehicle. At The Brewer Law Firm P.L.L.C., our lawyers intervene and help clients pursue the maximum possible compensation for recovery costs.

COMMON CAUSES OF ACCIDENTS

​Commercial automobiles pose a distinct danger to smaller cars and trucks on the road due to their sheer size, weight and velocity. While sometimes truckers make honest mistakes like failing to signal a lane change, or overt misjudgments like driving drunk, other times the company may cause a motor vehicle accident because of:

  • Overly demanding expectations and schedules that pressure drivers to ignore safety risks in favor of speed
  • Improper or insufficient training for operators regarding defensive driving techniques and safety procedures
  • Compensation that rewards drivers for longer hours and faster deliveries

 

​In addition to negligence on the part of the business, commercial vehicle accidents can also be caused by mechanical failure or faulty equipment.
