Commercial Trucking Accident Attorney Oklahoma

 
18 wheeler accidents are some of the most destructive as well as common accidents on the roads today. When a vehicle around twenty times the size of an ordinary passenger car and weighing over ten thousand pounds is involved in a wreck, most anything in the way will, in some way or another, be affected.

18 wheeler accidents are all too often due to the operator of the truck acting in an unsafe manner. It is estimated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that there are approximately 500,000 collisions involving 18 wheelers annually, with over four thousand ending in a fatality. These accidents occur from operators driving at dangerous speeds, hauling an overloaded trailer, making improper turns, disobeying traffic signs and regulations, drinking and driving, and operating the vehicle when fatigued.
