NJ Truck Accidents

What causes an NJ tractor trailer accident?
  • Fatigued or poorly trained drivers can have delayed reaction times and fail to stop or maneuver their trucks properly, endangering drivers around them.
  • Negligent operation of a truck in poor weather conditions can cause a large truck to swerve, jackknife, or tip over.
  • Truck defects can affect the tractor trailer’s brakes, signals, or other components, causing danger to everyone on the road. Driver error contributes to many tractor trailer accidents, which can range in severity from causing minor scrapes and bruises to permanent disability and even death.

Truck Accidents in New Jersey

Truck Accidents: Motor vehicle accidents between cars can cause significant personal injury. However, when one or more of the vehicles involved in the accident is a tractor trailer (big-rig truck), the damages can be even more profound. Each year, thousands of motorists and truck drivers are injured or killed in big rig accidents caused by driver’s mistakes and negligent trucking companies. Semi-truck drivers and the companies they work for have a duty to operate their vehicles in a safe and responsible manner.
