Truck Accident, 18-wheeler, Semi Crash Lawyers

M. Angela Dentice havs represented adults and children who have sustained injuries as a result of truck accidents.

The trucks involved can include large trucks, semi tractor trailers, eighteen wheelers or any truck whether or not it is involved in interstate trucking. Often these accidents involve a crash or collision between a smaller vehicle and a large tractor-trailer.

For example, the legal weight for an eighteen wheeler is 80,000 pounds or 40 tons. In comparison, the average weight of an automobile is in the area of 5,000 pounds.

Ms. Dentice has the experience of successfully litigating cases involving semi trucks. She has worked with trucking experts, including individuals who have taught truck drivers and have the knowledge of the federal regulations of the trucking industry.

These regulations require the truck drivers be on duty for limited periods of time. The rationale for these regulations is to prevent driver fatigue from occurring while the truck drivers are driving these immense vehicles.

Truck accidents can occur because the truck driver is fatigued, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, under pressure to arrive at his or her destination or because the driver is driving a truck that is overloaded or improperly maintained. It is important to analyze the conduct of these drivers and the condition of the truck to determine whether he or she has violated any of the state or federal regulations.

Ms. Dentice is proud to be one of the founding members of the Association of Plaintiff Interstate Trucking Lawyers of America.
