Whether it’s delivery trucks, 18-wheelers, semi-tractor trailers, or light trucks, California motor vehicle drivers share the roadways with vehicles that are often much larger (and potentially dangerous) than their own cars, passenger trucks, or motorcycles. In the event of a truck accident, serious and sometimes catastrophic injuries can occur leaving the victim facing a long and difficult road to recovery.
As we will discuss in the sections below, truck accidents often occur due to various forms of negligence. When truck accidents happen due to negligence, a civil lawsuit with La Justicia’s experienced team of personal injury attorneys can be the best way for you to recover much-needed financial compensation which can go towards things like hospital and medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages, and more.

Truck drivers are often forced to work long hours in an effort to meet strict deadlines. In fact, federal regulations allow truck drivers to operate their vehicles for 11 hours straight (although many drivers exceed that limit). When traveling for thousands of miles to meet a delivery deadline, truckers may resort to illegal substances in order to remain alert (or might simply operate vehicles while drowsy or borderline exhausted).
All of these conditions are ripe for truck accidents which can severely injure car and motorcycle drivers. And when truck accidents occur as a result of negligence, the injured victim should not responsible for paying for their medical bills, pain and suffering, etc.
Additional common truck accident scenarios include:

The important truck accident statistics provided below have been compiled through various data offered by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and more.
Truck, semi, and 18-wheeler accidents can be traumatic and life-altering events. The extent of one’s truck accident injuries can mean a long and difficult road to recovery. That said, knowing the steps to take after a truck accident – specifically one involving severe or catastrophic injuries – can be critical to your overall recovery, peace of mind, and pocketbook.
La Justicia’s army of truck accident lawyers strongly encourages you to complete as many of the following steps below as possible after a crash occurs to ensure that your eventual civil claim for financial compensation has the best odds of success.
The first step to take after any type of motor vehicle accident or personal injury incident is to seek immediate medical attention. This means getting a thorough and complete examination by a licensed California physician. Even if you feel “okay” or like your injury “isn’t that bad,” it’s absolutely critical that you have your condition examined by a doctor as soon as possible after the truck accident occurs.
A doctor’s exam following a truck accident creates a medical record of your injuries and condition. This official record can be a very important piece of evidence when you file your lawsuit/claim for financial compensation with a La Justicia semi-truck accident lawyer. While having a medical exam completed can be intimidating for some – particularly if you do not have medical insurance or the financial means to pay out-of-pocket – it is strongly recommended that you still proceed (and also receive any recommended treatment). Once you complete your medical exam, the experienced truck accident attorneys at La Justicia will work with you to ensure that your bills are included as part of your overall cash settlement.
After receiving medical treatment, the La Justicia truck accident team recommends completing as many of the following steps as possible (provided your condition/the severity of your injuries allows you to do so):
Take pictures and videos of your injuries immediately after the truck crash.
A police report should be filed whenever a truck accident happens. However, never admit any type of liability or make an official statement without having a La Justicia truck accident lawyer present.
Take pictures and videos of the truck accident scene.
Gather contact information (driver’s license, phone number, email, etc.) of all involved parties – particularly the truck driver who caused the crash.
Contact a dedicated truck accident lawyer at La Justicia for a free and confidential consultation.
Additionally, it is strongly recommended that you never make a statement to the truck driver, the truck driver’s insurance company, the truck driver’s employer, your insurance company, or any insurance adjuster without having a La Justicia personal injury attorney present to assist you through the process. Also, do not sign any legal documents or accept any type of cash settlement/payment for your truck accident injuries before speaking with a La Justicia lawyer.
Unfortunately, truck accident injuries are often severe and even life-changing. Some of the more common truck accident injuries the team of attorneys at La Justicia sees everyday include:
