Commercial Vehicle Accidents in Kentucky
Crashes involving commercial vehicles, such as semi-trucks and delivery trucks, pose a significant risk due to the size and weight of these vehicles. When a commercial truck collides with a passenger car, the occupants of the smaller vehicle are often more vulnerable to severe injuries.
Common causes of truck accidents include driver fatigue, distracted driving, improper lane changes, and mechanical failures. Highways like I-65 frequently see heavy commercial traffic, increasing the potential for collisions, especially during early morning or late-night hours when visibility and driver alertness may be reduced.
Victims of commercial vehicle accidents may face serious injuries, including whiplash, broken bones, spinal trauma, or internal injuries. Seeking immediate medical attention is essential for assessing and treating injuries properly.
For those involved in truck accidents, understanding their legal options is crucial. Victims may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages caused by the crash. Due to the complexities of commercial vehicle insurance policies and liability laws, consulting with a legal professional can help ensure that victims receive fair treatment and adequate compensation.
