Tractor Trailer / Semi Accidents

Truck accidents occur when large trailers weighing 10,000 pounds or more collide with other vehicles. The injuries and deaths that result from these accidents are almost always taken by the drivers and passengers of the smaller vehicles on the road. Trucking companies will do anything in their power to minimize the compensation they are liable to pay out. If you have been injured in a truck accident it is imperative that you contact a qualified personal injury attorney as soon as possible.

Driver Fatigue and Semi Accidents


A very dangerous symptom to fatigue in truck drivers is the inability to evaluate how fatigued they are. Truck drivers work long hours and are faced with rigorous deadlines that are often impossible to meet without driving for longer than would be considered safe. Because of this, truck driver fatigue plays a leading role in the cause of most trucking accidents. Driver fatigue can severely impair the ability of a person to drive.

If you live in Baltimore, Maryland or surrounding areas and have been injured in a trucking accident, or if you have a loved one that has been killed, please contact The Yost Legal Group to schedule a free, no-obligation consultation as soon as possible.
