I-95 and the Florida Turnpike as well as numerous other major road transit Pompano Beach, Florida. These busy roads provide easy access for visitors and residents of Pompano, as well as fast transportation for trucks traveling around the state. With the large number of trucks on the road comes a significant number of accidents involving trucks of all sizes.

These accidents can be complex, involving trucking companies, insurance companies, maintenance companies, and others, and require experienced attorneys to assist victims.

Trucks are a reality of life in the United States. They deliver supplies locally, regionally and nationally, stopping in Pompano Beach or traveling through the community. They haul everything from food products to household furniture to heavy machinery, and are a constant on America's roadways.

Likewise, accidents involving trucks are a reality in Pompano Beach and throughout America. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, more than 11,000 people a year are killed in accidents involving trucks, and over 790,000 are injured in truck accidents.

Lawyers familiar with truck accidents know that any number of issues can contribute to crashes.

Truck drivers are professional drivers, but driver error is responsible for a large number of traffic accidents involving trucks. Like other drivers, truck drivers can suffer from fatigue or engage in distracting behavior like texting, reading or talking on the phone, which can divert their attention. Rules against excessive driving hours have increased safety, but with most truck drivers working over 60 hours a week, physical and mental fatigue is a serious problem.

Truck drivers and trucking companies rely on their vehicles for their livelihood. However, deadlines can mean negligence in terms of maintenance or repair as a company hurries to get that vehicle back on the road. Likewise, trailers that are unbalanced or improperly loaded are difficult to drive and can cause an accident.

Poorly maintained roads can also contribute to truck accidents.

Because of the size and weight of trucks, crashes involving trucks often cause more damage than car-on-car crashes. Pompano Beach victims, like other victims, can find themselves faced with medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages which they incurred through no fault of their own. In a worst case scenario, families may find themselves dealing with the aftermath of a death of a loved one from a car crash.
