Trucks are responsible for moving America—both by transporting goods and by transporting people across country. Thousands of trucks transport goods and people every single day throughout the Chicago area. With the high number of trucks, come a high number of devastating accidents. In a truck vs. car accident in Chicago, it is usually the car that bears the brunt of the collision, with car drivers suffering massive injuries and frequently, the loss of life.
We Make Those Greedy Insurance Companies Pay!
The tremendous size and weight of a truck makes it impossible to slow down quick and “stop on a dime.” Many car drivers do not realize that the stopping distance for large trucks is significantly longer than for light cars and motorcycles. When a car cuts off a truck, the truck simply cannot slow down in time, and all too frequently, a multi-car collision occurs, injuring people in vehicles all over the road.
Of course, many accidents involving trucks are the truck driver’s fault as well. With deadlines to meet and strict schedule to maintain, truckers may speed or blur the rules as far as hours logged is concerned, making them drive tired. This is a cause for concern to all on the road, as a truck weigh in excess of 25,000 pounds is like a bomb on the road.
Over 170,000 individuals are injured due to trucking accidents every year in America, with over 4,500 trucks being involved in accidents that result in death. Illinois, unfortunately, has consistently ranked as one of the higher states for such deaths.
