Bronx Drunk Driving Truck Accident Lawyers
Commercial truck drivers have a responsibility to follow the law and drive alertly at all times. When truck drivers act recklessly by driving while drunk, they put themselves and other unsuspecting drivers in great danger. Semi-trailer trucks weigh several tons and can easily spin out of control or flip over if not driven properly, crashing into other vehicles or pushing them off of the road.
If you or someone you love has been hurt in a 18-wheeler accident with a drunk driver, the Bronx drunk driving truck accident lawyers of Parker Waichman Alonso, LLP are committed to fighting on your behalf for the injury compensation that you deserve.
Truck Collision Dangers
Because of their massive size and weight, an accident with a semi-trailer truck can be devastating. These 18-wheelers take much longer to stop than a normal automobile, and any delay in a person’s reaction time caused by drinking could cause a truck driver to lose the precious seconds needed to prevent an accident.
A truck driver who has been drinking may over-steer the truck or swerve just enough to cause the semi-trailer to jack-knife or roll over. A single truck can hit several cars if the driver loses control, causing severe injury or death to drivers and passengers who were unable to avoid the sudden accident.
