Did a Negligent Trucker Cause Your Crash and Serious Injuries? Trust the Wright Lawyer With Your Truck Accident Injury Claim

South Carolina Truck Accident Lawyer

Tractor-trailers are a vital part of the U.S. economy. Goods are being trucked into South Carolina’s coastal cities 24/7. However, our reliance on the trucking industry puts tremendous strain on the individual drivers, who are often pushed to the limit to stay on schedule and meet the demand. When a tired, speeding, or impaired trucker causes a crash that injures a motorist, both the trucker and their employer might be liable for compensating the injured driver.

At Wright Injury Law, we don't back down from the challenges presented by a commercial truck accident case. Attorney Brooke Eaves Wright will take on corporate lawyers, stingy insurance companies, and tight-lipped trucking companies to get you the compensation you deserve after a devasting truck accident in Myrtle Beach.

Understanding the Differences Between Car Accidents and Commercial Truck Accidents

Crashes involving semi-trucks are much more complicated than collisions between two cars. Understanding these differences is crucial, and seeking legal representation from a personal injury lawyer with specific experience in commercial truck accidents will be very important to the success of your claim.

A few ways commercial truck crashes differ from car accidents include the following:

Scale and severity of injuries. Accidents involving commercial trucks, such as tractor-trailers or big rigs, are more likely to cause catastrophic injuries due to their sheer size and weight. The potential for severe injuries and fatalities makes the legal and medical implications more complex.
Liability and multiple parties. Commercial truck accidents often entail multiple parties, including the truck driver, trucking company, cargo loaders, and maintenance personnel. Liability may extend beyond the driver to include the trucking company's negligence, inadequate maintenance, or improper loading practices. Identifying all responsible parties is crucial for a comprehensive legal strategy.
Regulatory compliance. Commercial trucks are subject to extensive federal and state regulations imposed by agencies like the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). These regulations cover driver hours of service, vehicle maintenance, weight limits, and other safety standards. Violations of these regulations can significantly impact liability in a commercial truck accident case.
Investigation and evidence. Investigating commercial truck accidents requires a more in-depth approach. This involves scrutinizing driver logs, maintenance records, black box data, and compliance with safety regulations. The involvement of commercial insurance and the need for specialized knowledge make the investigative process more intricate.
