Missouri Truck Accident Attorney

St Louis Trucking Accident Injury Lawyer

Truck accidents are extremely dangerous and they are responsible for more than a quarter of all passenger vehicle occupant deaths in truck/multiple vehicle accidents in the United States. Compared with the fact that only three percent of total vehicles on the road are classified as large trucks such as semis, tractor trailers, big rigs and 18 wheelers, the previously mentioned fatality percentage is very high. Large trucks present a huge danger to smaller, more fragile passenger cars on the highways and roads throughout Missouri. If a truck driver is negligent, careless or dangerous in his or her driving maneuvers or maintenance, an accident could easily result.

The average big rig truck weighs 80,000 pounds or over.  That is 40 tons, which is easily more than 20 times the weight of an everyday sedan.  When 80,000 pounds of steel and plastic impacts a 3,000 pound car, you can expect the results to be devastating.  You need to know how to protect yourself and your family in the event that you are severely injured with an accident with a large truck.
