Waco Truck Driver Negligence Lawyers
The majority of mistakes made while behind the wheel of an automobile do not result in harm coming to us, to other motorists, or even to our vehicles. Instead they cause a brief moment of panic and an internal vow not to make the same error again. But when a moment of carelessness or pattern of negligent driving causes an automobile accident, the driver is legally liable for the consequences of that collision.
Truck drivers are professional motorists, so there is absolutely no excuse for such a lapse, especially in light of the disastrous effects that a truck accident can have. If you have been involved in an accident caused by a truck driver, contact the Waco truck driver negligence lawyers of the Law Offices of Vic Feazell, P.C., at 877-948-4842. Let us help you obtain the monetary compensation that you need to address your medical bills and other damages.
Examples of Truck Driver Error
While it is easy to grasp accident dangers such as intoxicated and drowsy driving, the concepts of driver error and negligence are a bit broader and more difficult to pin down. They are also not to be confused with recklessness, which might be characterized by excessive speed, frequent and rapid lane changes, or following too closely behind another vehicle.
Some examples of truck driver error/negligence include:
- Failure to Use a Turn Signal
- Failure to Check Mirrors
- Braking Too Hard
- Depressing the Gas Pedal Instead of the Brake Pedal
- Reversing Instead of Shifting into Gear
