Truck Rollover Accidents

Injured? Call a Charleston Truck Accident Lawyer

Truck rollover accidents have some of the most catastrophic consequences, and the damages can be tremendous. Vehicles and property may be destroyed, passengers and pedestrians nearby may suffer from life-threatening injuries, and in some cases, death may even occur.

Truck rollover accidents are one of the most frequent types of truck accidents. If you were injured, we urge you to seek legal counsel right away, as you may be entitled to receive compensation.

The Causes of Truck Rollover Accidents

Commercial trucks are an important part of our everyday lives. They travel the roads each and every day to deliver goods from one location to the other. Unfortunately, this also makes it more likely for a truck accident to occur. The size of the trucks and the weight that they carry can also contribute to a rollover accident.

Here are some of the most common causes of rollover accidents:

• Speeding
• Swerving
• Oversteering
• Making sudden maneuvers
• Tired or drowsy driver
• Traffic violations
• Drunk driving
• Using a cell phone while driving
• Poor road conditions

Truck rollovers can include a broad range of accidents: a truck plows into a guardrail, and the load spills out onto the highway; a truck rolls over in the middle of the road, stopping traffic; a truck crushes another vehicle slams into the shoulder. Our Charleston truck accident lawyers review all of the details to decipher how the accident occurred. We use every piece of information possible to help our clients find the necessary compensation for injuries and other losses.
