Truck accidents involving vehicles the size of tractor trailers, 18 wheelers, semis and other large freight carriers can cause catastrophic damage. When these giant trucks crash they can spill hazardous cargo that can endanger the surrounding area, roll-over, cause multi-vehicle pileups and annihilate a passenger vehicle.

Truck accidents cause damage to property and injury, disability and death to people. The medical expenses involved in the care and treatment and recovery of injuries sustained in a truck accident can last for months or even years, depending on their severity. Injuries from a truck accident are among the most devastating seen and can include broken bones, loss of limbs, severe burns, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and paralysis. In a worst case scenario, the family of truck accident victim could be left with funeral and burial costs.
