Truck accidents are often serious and deadly and may involve trucks colliding with cars, other trucks, motorcycles, trains at railroad crossings, multi-vehicle pile-ups on fog shrouded highways, pedestrians or bicyclists being struck by delivery trucks on city streets, jackknife accidents, brake failures and runaway trucks on downgrades, rollovers caused by tire blowouts, unsecured and shifting loads and toxic spills that endanger communities.

Common causes of catastrophic truck accidents involving serious injuries and deaths are speeding, driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, reckless and aggressive driving, fatigue due to demanding schedules, mechanical failure and poor maintenance of equipment, tire failures and dangerous driving conditions due to weather or road hazards.
