The Dangers of Truck Accidents
Trucks weigh much more than passenger cars, with an estimated weight of as high as 80,000 pounds for many big rigs and tractor-trailers. Trucks not only have more momentum because of their larger size, but they can also be susceptible to roll-over accidents, under-ride accidents and jackknife accidents.
Unfortunately, all of these factors make truck accidents especially dangerous for those in Alpharetta Georgia. A motorist involved in an accident with a truck could suffer a variety of injuries including broken bones; burn injuries; head and brain injuries; spinal cord damage or internal injuries. These injuries can be expensive to treat and, in some cases, they may be permanent or lead to death.
Those who suffer serious injuries or family members who lose their loved ones not only have concerns about the emotional and physical pain the injuries cause, but may also have financial worries due to the medical expenses of the crash and because the injuries prevent work.
The laws in Georgia aim to compensate accident victims for both the economic losses and non-economic losses endured by holding truck drivers and trucking companies financially responsible for accidents they cause.
