Utah Semi Truck Accident Attorney
Salt Lake City Big Truck Lawyer
Today’s Utah highways are more crowded than ever, and the risk of an accident involving large rigs, commercial vehicles and semi-tractor trailers is on the increase. Truck drivers often spend long stretches of time on the road, which dulls their senses, causes fatigue and reduces reaction time. Large trucks also require a higher standard of maintenance, and when brakes or tires fail the results can be devastating. At high speeds, large trucks have a harder time slowing for stopped traffic. (The high weight of a typical semi-truck trailer requires 3x to 4x the stopping distance as compared to a car.) Sometimes safety is compromised by the use of narcotics or alcohol.
For the driver in an automobile, the collision with a much larger vehicle at high speeds can result in horrific results. Many such truck-car accidents result in critical injuries requiring months or even years of recovery, extremely high medical bills and long periods without income. Some devastating accidents often result in a wrongful death situation.
