Truck Accidents in California
Crashes involving large commercial vehicles are a serious concern on major California routes, such as Interstate 5 (I-5) and Interstate 80 (I-80), especially around hubs like Sacramento. Given the size and weight of these trucks, truck accidents and commercial vehicle accidents often result in devastating injuries, such as severe brain damage and spinal cord injuries, which can be lifelong.
These truck-related cases get complicated quickly due to the involvement of powerful trucking firms and large trucking conglomerates. A truck driver is legally “on the job,” which adds layers of complexity not found in a typical car crash. This can make it difficult for victims to ascertain their rightful compensation and get a fair settlement for past and future damages, often leading to complex litigation.
