What types of accidents occur between big trucks and other vehicles?
Truck accidents may occur under a variety of circumstances. Truck drivers may sometimes lose control of their vehicles because they are overloaded, or poorly maintained or because of dangerous conditions on the roadway. Many truck accidents also happen because the big rig drivers have been illegally working longer hours than they are supposed to. Because of the size and weight of the big rigs the intensity and magnitude of a big truck crash is many times more than a crash between passenger vehicles.
