Truck Driver Negligence

Charleston Truck Driver Negligence

Let Our Charleston Legal Team Fight for Your Rights

When in proper operation by a good driver, semi-trucks pose the same level of danger as cars or motorcycles. Yet, when a truck driver clearly demonstrates blatant carelessness or recklessness, collisions may occur, resulting in devastating consequences.

Common forms of truck driver negligence include:

  • Aggressive driving – Due to strict deadlines, truck drivers will do whatever it takes to get to their assigned destination on time. They may speed, change lanes without signaling, following too closely, and other reckless activities.
  • Lack of proper training – When a driver doesn’t possess the knowledge and competence to properly operate a truck, especially when harsh weather makes driving more difficult, it increases the risk of a serious collision.
  • Texting or talking on the cellphone while driving – This goes for all drivers who share the road, but is especially dangerous if a truck driver demonstrates this careless behavior.

If you were seriously injured or you lost a loved one due to a truck driver’s negligence, you need an experienced Charlotte truck accident attorney on your side to attain the justice you rightfully deserve. With 75 years of trial experience and an exceptional track record of millions of dollars won, we are prepared to fight for you and seek compensation on your behalf that can relieve some of the medical expenses for you.

Gathering Evidence to Prove Truck Driver Negligence

Negligent truck drivers will use the trucking company and insurance company to cover up their behavior and avoid doing what’s right. Our Charleston injury attorneys can conduct a comprehensive investigation and aggressively handle your case so that you and your loved one can receive the support necessary to endure the road to recovery.

  • Interviews with witnesses
