The Dangers of Columbus, Georgia Truck Accidents
A truck accident can be far more serious than a car wreck since trucks can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds and passenger vehicles generally only weigh around 3,000 to 5,000 pounds on average. Unfortunately, the discrepancy in size means that a truck accident is often fatal or causes permanent lifelong injuries.
The laws in Georgia mandate that truck drivers are held legally responsible for any losses that they cause if their negligence or failure to properly maintain their tractor trailers leads to a truck accident. Not only that, but trucking companies can also be held liable if the company is negligent in its policies or based on the fact that their employees are negligent or careless.
Victims of truck accidents or family members of those killed in truck crashes can thus take legal action against either a trucking company or the truck driver after an accident happens in Columbus, GA.
