Areas of Practice | 18 Wheeler Collisions
Each year, approximately 5,000 people die in tractor-trailer (18 wheeler) accidents and an estimated 140,000 are seriously injured. Due to the size of commercial trucks such as 18 wheelers and tractor trailers, any collision between a commercial truck and a passenger car is likely to result in serious injuries and significant property damage.

Trucking companies must follow the guidelines created by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). These rules include but are not limited to: driver rest periods, specific driver logs, and mandated insurance coverage.
