There were 4,450 commercial truck accidents throughout North Carolina last year. While commercial trucking growth is good news for the trucking companies and the nation’s economy, it is bad news for the cars, vans and SUVs that share the road with these potentially lethal giants. Tractor Trailer accidents are most often caused by:

  • Aggressive drivers

  • Unrealistic schedules

  • Failure to inspect tires, brakes and lights

  • Tailgating

  • Long work-shifts

  • Driver fatigue

  • Cell phone use

  • Failure to install blind spot mirrors

  • Jackknifing

  • Speeding and ignoring reduced truck speed limit

QUESTIONS/COMMENTS:

  When tractor trailer collisions do occur, trucking companies involved in the accident often send representatives to the accident scene. These agents work to handle everything at the scene of the accident so that they can limit or mitigate their company’s liability. These companies’ representatives know that the ideal time to confront an accident victim is immediately following the event. If you have been involved in a truck accident, contact our experienced North Carolina truck accident lawyers. We can help advise you of your rights and represent your best interests.
  • Every 16 minutes, a person is killed or sustains injuries in accidents involving 18-wheelers, tractor-trailers or semi-trucks
  • Large trucks are more likely to be involved in a fatal multi-vehicle crash than are passenger vehicles.
  • Trucking revenues totaled $610 billion last year and revenues are forecasted to nearly double by 2015.

We will never know how many motorists have been “lucky” enough to have escaped a catastrophic encounter with a big rig. How many passenger vehicles are confronted daily by aggressive, fatigued truck drivers pulling a 13 hour shift in order to make a professional wage and meet tight deadlines? How many semi trucks on the highway are operating despite failed roadside inspections? Which drivers have cheated on their Hours of Service logbooks? Even with these frightening scenarios and statistics, powerful trucking industry lobbyists continue to call for the weakening of truck safety rules and regulations to reap a higher profit.

Our attorneys have tackled powerful trucking companies and their agents to protect the rights of our clients involved in tractor-trailer or “semi” crashes. Ken and Ben's team of attorneys has the right combination of in-depth knowledge of trucking industry regulations and expertise in victims’ rights to structure the most successful claims for our clients. As our client, we can help you receive monetary compensation for medical costs, lost income, expenses, and the pain and suffering you’ve endured because of a large truck accident.

If you have been hurt, or a loved one has died, as the result of an accident involving a tractor-trailer, semi or other large truck, you need the help of attorneys who have the experience and resources to protect your rights. Do not permanently lose your right to seek damages from those who caused you harm, call Hardison & Associates, Attorneys at Law today.
