The Complexities of Truck Wrecks

Truck accidents are far more complicated than typical car accidents, and they often involve multiple layers of legal, regulatory, and insurance-related issues. At Bloom Injury Law, our truck accident lawyers understand these complexities and know how to navigate them effectively to protect your rights.

Federal and State Regulations

Commercial trucking is governed by strict federal and state regulations, such as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), which set rules for driver hours, vehicle maintenance, and cargo loading. Identifying violations of these regulations is critical to determining liability in a truck wreck case. Our attorneys are well-versed in these laws and know how to uncover non-compliance that may have contributed to your accident.

Multiple Liable Parties

Unlike car accidents, where typically one party is at fault, truck wrecks often involve several liable parties. The truck driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, and even vehicle or parts manufacturers may share responsibility. Our team conducts thorough investigations to identify all potentially liable parties and ensure they are held accountable.

Extensive Investigations

Truck accidents require more extensive investigations than most vehicle crashes. In addition to reviewing police reports, our truck accident lawyers examine driver logs, black box data, maintenance records, and other key evidence that can prove fault. We also work with accident reconstruction experts and industry specialists to build a strong case on your behalf.

Severe Injuries and Higher Damages

Due to the size and weight of commercial trucks, truck wrecks often result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities. Victims may face lifelong medical treatment, significant lost wages, and emotional trauma. Calculating the full extent of your damages in a truck wreck case is complex, and our personal injury lawyers work with medical and financial experts to ensure you seek the maximum compensation possible.

If you’ve been involved in a truck accident, don’t let the complexities of the case overwhelm you. Contact Bloom Injury Law today for a free consultation, and let us handle the legal challenges while you focus on healing.

Common Injuries from Truck Accidents

Truck accidents often result in severe injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. Here are some of the most common injuries victims may suffer:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) – Caused by head trauma, these injuries can result in long-term cognitive, emotional, and physical impairments.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries – Damage to the spine can lead to partial or complete paralysis, significantly affecting a victim’s mobility and quality of life.
  • Broken Bones – The force of a truck collision can result in fractures, which may require surgery, physical therapy, and extensive recovery time.
  • Internal Injuries – Damage to organs like the liver, kidneys, or lungs can occur due to blunt force trauma or penetration during the accident.
  • Whiplash and Neck Injuries – The impact of a truck accident can cause severe strain on the neck, resulting in chronic pain and reduced range of motion.
  • Burn Injuries – In cases where a truck carries flammable materials, victims may suffer severe burns, leading to permanent scarring and disfigurement.
  • Amputations – Truck accidents can result in the loss of limbs, either during the crash or due to injuries that require surgical amputation.
  • Lacerations and Abrasions – Deep cuts and wounds from shattered glass or sharp objects in the vehicle can leave lasting scars.
  • Emotional Trauma – Victims of truck accidents may experience post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression as a result of the accident.

If you’ve sustained any of these injuries in a truck accident, Bloom Injury Law can help you pursue the compensation you deserve for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Contact us today for a free consultation.

Who Is Liable in a Truck Wreck?

Determining liability in a truck wreck is often more complex than in a standard car accident. Multiple parties may be responsible for the accident, and understanding who is liable is crucial for recovering compensation. At Bloom Injury Law, our truck accident lawyers carefully investigate each case to identify all potentially responsible parties. Here are some of the most common liable parties in a truck wreck:

Truck Driver

The truck driver is often the first party investigated in a truck accident. Driver error, such as fatigue, distracted driving, speeding, or driving under the influence, can all lead to a serious crash. If the driver was negligent, they may be held liable for the damages caused.

Trucking Company

Trucking companies are responsible for ensuring that their drivers are properly trained, their vehicles are well-maintained, and that they comply with federal regulations like the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR). If a trucking company pressures drivers to meet unrealistic schedules, fails to perform regular maintenance, or hires unqualified drivers, they can be held liable for accidents caused by these oversights.

Cargo Loaders

Improperly loaded or overloaded cargo can make a truck unstable and more prone to accidents. If cargo shifts during transit or exceeds weight limits, the cargo loading company may be held liable for the resulting accident.

Truck Manufacturers or Parts Suppliers

In some cases, a defective truck part, such as brakes or tires, may contribute to a wreck. If a mechanical failure is determined to have caused the accident, the manufacturer or supplier of the faulty part may be liable.

Maintenance Providers

Truck maintenance companies that fail to perform necessary inspections or repairs can also be held accountable if a vehicle malfunction leads to an accident. If poor maintenance contributed to the wreck, the service provider may share liability.

Other Drivers

In certain situations, another vehicle on the road may be responsible for causing the truck accident, such as by cutting off a truck or engaging in reckless driving. If this is the case, that driver may be held liable for the collision.
