Atlanta Lawyer: Truck Brake Failure
Truck brake failure — imagine an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer headed for your car with no means of stopping. An 18-wheeler may outweigh a passenger vehicle by a ration of 20 to 1. For that reason, commercial trucking companies are required to follow strict regulatory guidelines regarding trucking equipment maintenance, including brake maintenance. Unfortunately, brake failure still occurs. Reasons include:
- Cost-cutting measures, where trucking companies fail to provide regular maintenance
- Negligence on the part of maintenance contractors during the performance of brake maintenance
- Driver negligence, when a driver fails to perform required pre-trip checks
If you lost a member of your family in a fatal truck crash or suffered a serious injury, you must uncover all factors leading to the accident. Only then will you be able to recover the compensation you need and deserve.
