Truck Accident Caused By Speeding In Fort Worth

Commercial truck drivers have tight schedules, usually needing to put miles and miles of highway behind them each and every day. The pressure put upon them by their parent companies can be stressful and many may resort to speeding to try to fulfill duties, or just to get home before midnight. Breaking the speed limit is not only illegal but also extremely reckless.

Why is speeding in a semi-truck so dangerous?

Tractor trailers are nothing short of massive and command a larger portion of highway space than most drivers realize. They can weigh – on average – 80,000 pounds and still maintain the speed of the much-lighter vehicles around them, giving commercial trucks a devastating amount of force behind them.

Stopping distances will be increased while reaction times are decreased. Going above the speed limit will only continue to minimize the truck driver’s ability to react safely while increasing the impact of the trailer, if and when it collides with another driver.

Seeking Compensation in a Truck Collision

It is estimated that up to 80% of all collisions with a commercial or industrial truck are found mostly at fault of the driver of the semi. Taking legal action is your best chance at getting any restitution you deserve, but it can be impossible alone. Not only will you be going up against the truck driver in court, but you may also face his employer and your own insurance company, should they not cover certain damages.

When I first meet the Parker Law Firm “team”, they were friendly and sincerely concerned about me. They always went above and beyond in helping me and keeping me well informed throughout my whole process. I appreciate each and every one of the people involved in my case. I can’t say enough wonderful things about them.

They are a "5" on all qualities: especially professionalism. We received a superb referral to an attorney who met our exact needs. We would not have known about that attorney's office - Kent Davis - had it not been for the quick responsiveness to an inquiry for an estate attorney. The Brad Parker Law Firm has a spirit of partnership with potential clients, actual clients and fellow attorneys. Greatly appreciated. If I have a need for Mr. Parker's direct services, I will certainly give him a call.

I called for a consultation on a vehicle accident. Patricia was eager to help and was so professional. She took her time speaking to us and answered any questions my husband and I had without hesitation. She also offered to send us valuable information. They made us feel at ease during a very stressful time. I would definitely recommend their services.
