How Do Truck Accidents Happen in San Diego? The Law Offices of Ronald B. Laba Has Your Answers

Truck drivers have a responsibility to share the road safely with other drivers, and trucking companies have legal obligations to monitor drivers and maintain their vehicles. Unfortunately, drivers sometimes make careless or reckless errors. Trucking companies sometimes cut corners to boost profits.

A tired trucker could fall asleep at the wheel on Interstate 5 moments before a head-on crash. A trucking company might deliberately turn a blind eye to driver safety violations or defective vehicle parts. Some causes of truck accidents are more common than others. San Diego truck accident attorney Ronald B. Laba is familiar with common causes, which include the following:

  • FATIGUED DRIVER
  • DRIVER IMPAIRED BY DRUGS OR ALCOHOL
  • OVERLOADED TRAILERS
  • POORLY MAINTAINED TRUCKS
  • TRUCKING COMPANY NEGLIGENCE
