There are thousands of accidents causing injuries and deaths on Maryland roads every year. A large percentage of them involve someone driving while under the influence of alcohol. If a driver is caught driving while drunk, they can face criminal prosecution. However, that does not help the victims of an accident that caused injuries or death.

Truck Accident Injuries in Frederick, MD

The trucking industry has never been more important to our economy. With the rise of internet shopping, consumers are ordering goods from all over the country to be shipped right to their doors. However, while these big trucks are important, they are also a safety hazard. If a truck is involved in an accident, it’s much more likely that the other vehicle and its occupants will get the worst of it. 

A cab for a semi-truck can be up to 70 feet long. Plus, it can carry up to 80,000 pounds. All of that size and weight is barreling down the road at 60 mph, and a crash with a smaller and lighter vehicle can lead to serious damage and injury. If you’ve been injured or lost a loved one to a truck accident, do not delay. Contact our Frederick, Maryland personal injury attorneys immediately for help. With a truck accident, there are many parties that may be liable, from the driver, to the trucking company, to any maintenance or repair services they might use.
