Moving Truck Accidents Can be Complex
Moving truck accidents can cause serious injury and the loss of life for those struck by them. These are large, often improperly loaded trucks, sometimes speeding down the roadway next to you. Some of the most common reasons these accidents occur include:
- A driver who has no experience driving a truck is behind the wheel. Some people rent moving trucks and do the work themselves. That means they may have no idea how to move a truck in a safe manner.
- The load inside the truck is unsafe. Unbalanced loads can cause mechanical failures as well as steering problems for drivers, creating accident risks.
- Distraction because of a navigational device or eating on the road causes the driver to lose focus on the road. Distracted driving is a common and worrisome cause of such accidents.
- Mechanical failures, including engine failures, brakes going out, or tire ruptures, may occur if the owner does not take care of the vehicle properly.
- The person behind the wheel operates it recklessly. Speeding, illegal lane changes, or tailgating can all lead to serious accidents.

- Disfigurement: Burns, scarring, and amputations are some of the most common causes of these types of injuries. They can make it challenging for victims to maintain mental well-being as well.
- Internal organ injuries: Internal bleeding may cause organ failure that is short- or long-term. That can impact a person’s quality of life.
- Emotional trauma: In some situations, emotional trauma can include the onset of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, or anxiety, impacting daily life.
