Get Experienced Legal Help from Our Albuquerque Truck Accident Lawyers
Due to their massive size and weight, accidents involving semi-trucks and
tractor-trailers are often devastating, resulting in debilitating injuries
and fatalities. If you decide to file a lawsuit against a negligent trucker,
you will also deal with the trucking company itself, backed by their powerful
legal team. It is important to hire experienced representation from a
qualified personal injury attorney.

Causes of Truck Accidents
Trucking companies and their drivers are obligated to follow the rules
outlined in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR). Unfortunately,
in many cases, they ignore these regulations in order to meet deadlines
faster, make more deliveries, and gain a profit despite sacrificing the
safety of innocent people. What may appear to be a simple error can sometimes
be traced to an intentional choice by the company or driver to ignore
federal law.
Common causes of truck accidents include the following:
- Fatigued driving
- Driving while intoxicated
- Distracted driving
- Overloaded or improperly loaded cargo
- Failure to conduct adequate vehicle inspection and maintenance
- Hiring inexperienced or unqualified drivers
- Inclement weather conditions
