Missouri Truck Accident Attorney
Tractor trailers are a common cause of truck accidents on our Nation's highways and streets. Tractor trailers are commonly referred to as large trucks, big rigs, or semi-trucks. These trucks typically weigh about Eighty Thousand (80,000) pounds and range from about Sixty-Seven (67) to Seventy-Five (75) feet in length. The massive size of these trucks is one reason they cause so much damage when one is involved in a truck accident. These large trucks represent only 3% of all the registered vehicles on the road. Despite this small percentage, tractor trailers account for over 25% of passenger vehicle occupant deaths in multiple vehicle and truck accidents.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS ON OUR NATION'S ROADWAYS are a serious threat to the traveling public. These truck accidents are the leading cause of death for those under the age of thirty-four (34). Over 40,000 people are killed annually in approximately five million motor vehicle accidents. In 2002 alone, nearly 43,000 people died in highway accidents nationwide. That is over 115 fatalities per day from accidents. The economic cost of these accidents is staggering and exceeds $150 billion per year. During your lifetime you are likely to be involved in at least one accident. You should know what to do in order to protect yourself and your legal rights.
