The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

Truck accidents happen very quickly and for many reasons. A truck accident can be the fault of the truck driver, the truck manufacturer, the government who maintains the roads, or the fault of another driver. In the case of one recent truck accident in Los Angeles, the person at fault was a 36-year-old man who was driving a van.

Authorities do not yet know why the 36-year-old man veered off the road and hit a parked car. The parked car was pushed forward hitting a 50-year-old truck driver and throwing him onto the bed of his broken down truck that he was having towed. The 50-year-old man was airlifted to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The 36-year-old driver of the van suffered minor personal injuries. This Los Angeles truck accident was caused by the negligent actions of the 36-year-old and resulted in the truck driver’s wrongful death.
