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

POORLY MAINTAINED TRUCKS

Trucking companies have a legal responsibility to keep their trucks properly maintained. When a company fails to keep its fleet of vehicles safely operating on the road, that company is putting everyone sharing the road at risk of being involved in a serious truck accident. Accidents involving poorly maintained trucks are especially serious because both the driver of the truck – and the driver, passengers, pedestrians or bicyclists in the truck’s path – rarely see the accident coming.

Truck brake failure or tire blowouts may occur due to an overloaded truck, but both issues are common problems linked to poor vehicle maintenance. When these important safety components fail to work properly, consequences can be severe because truckers don’t have time to stop before striking another vehicle.

What are the most common forms of poor truck maintenance? Negligent maintenance can include the following:

  • Faulty brakes
  • Bald or defective tires
  • Malfunctioning turn signals
  • Broken headlights

Whatever the cause of your truck accident, we can help. Trucking companies are often quick to point the finger at the truck manufacturer or even you, claiming you did something wrong. Accidents involving accusations of poor vehicle maintenance require strong legal representation from a tough-minded attorney who knows how to hold negligent truck companies accountable for their actions.

At the Law Offices of Ronald B. Laba, we have the experience and resources necessary to fight back against negligent truckers and trucking companies. With the help of experts, we can review police records, truck logs and sensitive “black box” information that could reveal a mechanical failure. We can even request records of vehicle maintenance and inspections that could prove the trucking company – and not you – was at fault in the accident. Contact us today.
