Trucking accidents are a significant safety concern on roadways across the country. These collisions can result in severe injuries and fatalities, as well as substantial property damage. Factors such as driver fatigue, speeding, distracted driving, and inadequate maintenance contribute to the occurrence of trucking accidents.
Client’s case
Our client’s car was struck by a tractor-trailer in Dutchess County. The driver sustained neck injuries and his passenger, back injuries; both required spinal surgery. The insurance company attempted to discount our clients’ injuries by asserting that their surgeries were not related to the crash but those arguments were overcome and the case was settled.
