Truck Rollovers

Los Angeles Truck Rollover Accident Attorney

Truck rollover accidents are often catastrophic events. These accidents involve a large truck, such as a delivery truck, 18-wheeler or semi truck that actually tips and rolls over while on the road. When this occurs, the driver of the truck and anyone else in the vicinity of the incident may be at risk of serious injury. In a truck rollover, another vehicle may literally be crushed by the larger vehicle, as may any nearby pedestrian or bicyclist.

Truck Rollovers - What Causes These Accidents?

What causes truck rollover accidents to occur? Large trucks may already be at an increased risk of tipping or rolling over, particularly during heavy weather conditions such as rain or high wind. The extreme size and weight of the truck and its cargo make it more difficult to maneuver even in light weather. If a truck is improperly balanced or loaded, the likelihood of a rollover is greatly increased. For example, a trucking company may overload a truck in an attempt to cut costs and delivery more goods with fewer vehicles. In an emergency situation or in heavy weather, this overloaded truck may have an increased propensity to be involved in a rollover accident.
