Fort Myers Trucking Accident Attorneys

Committed to Standing Up for Victims of Negligence

Because of their size, inability to make quick stops, heavy (and sometimes hazardous) loads, and other factors, trucks are an imposing force on the road, and trucking accidents can be even more dangerous and fatal than other vehicular accidents. These accidents can be caused by negligence or recklessness, such as:

Overloading a truck’s cargo (and exceeding the federal limits)
Installing defective truck parts
Failing to properly maintain or inspect a truck’s mechanics
Failing to maintain proper roadway conditions
Driving under the influence
Driving drowsy (and surpassing the limits placed on how long drivers can be on the road within a 24-hour period)
