What is the most common cause of semi-truck accidents?

>Driver error—including fatigue, distraction, and speeding—is the leading cause of semi-truck accidents. Truck drivers are often under pressure to meet tight deadlines, leading to violations of federal rest requirements and risky driving behaviors. Other common causes include mechanical failures, improper cargo loading, and hazardous road conditions.

Because truck accidents tend to cause severe injuries, federal regulations and Nevada laws impose strict liability on negligent trucking companies. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident in or near Las Vegas, reach out to us today. Our dedicated injury attorneys will investigate the cause and hold all responsible parties accountable for your damages.
