The Dangers of 18-Wheeler Wrecks

18-wheeler wrecks can have devastating consequences due to the sheer size and weight of these commercial trucks. The impact of a collision involving an 18-wheeler can cause severe injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, internal organ damage, and even wrongful death. The victims of these accidents often face significant medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term disability. It is crucial to understand the dangers associated with 18-wheeler wrecks and take the necessary steps to protect your rights.

Common Causes of 18-Wheeler Wrecks

Several factors can contribute to 18-wheeler wrecks in Louisiana. Some of the most common causes include:

  1. Driver fatigue: Truck drivers may work long hours and fail to get adequate rest, leading to drowsy driving and reduced reaction times.
  2. Speeding and reckless driving: Due to tight schedules and pressure to meet delivery deadlines, truck drivers may exceed speed limits and engage in reckless driving behaviors, such as aggressive lane changes and tailgating.
  3. Improper truck maintenance: Neglected maintenance can result in brake failures, tire blowouts, and other mechanical malfunctions that contribute to accidents.
  4. Overloaded or improperly loaded trucks: When trucks are overloaded or improperly loaded, it can affect their stability and handling, increasing the risk of accidents.
  5. Driving under the influence: Some truck drivers may operate their vehicles under the influence of drugs or alcohol, impairing their judgment and reaction times.

Someone who was not watching what she was doing t-boned me as she pulled out of her driveway. At the behest of a friend who reminded me that injuries often do not show up until later (& after the insurance company has done their best not to help you, to lowball you, to leave you potentially with problems years after the crash, I contacted the guys at Landgrave Garcia.

Without them, it would have been hard for me to get my car fixed. It would have been hard for me to have gotten the medical help I needed. Her insurance company would have paid very little if anything. They made sure I got compensated to the full extent of the law.

These guys were top-notch. I highly recommend that you consult them immediately, that you follow their suggestions, & that you trust them to do the excellent job they are doing to keep average people from getting shafted. Tell them I sent you.
