Tractor-Trailer Crash Investigation is Underway

The CHP is currently investigating the cause of the crash.

Commercial trucks are useful for the economy. The trucking industry is a multi-billion dollar industry that turns over massive profits, however, and it must adhere to strict rules and regulations to help keep everyone on our road-system safe. However, truck-related accidents are still an inevitable occurrence. There are several reasons why tractor-trailer crashes occur. The most common reasons are loss of control of the truck, a tire blowout, a disabling or non-disabling vehicle failure, speeding, lane drifting, improper truck maneuvering, and driver fatigue.

When facing cases like this, it’s essential to have an experienced San Bernardino truck accident attorney to conduct an independent investigation for their client. Attorneys have the resources that can help them prove the negligence of the liable party. They can hire expert witnesses, do driver background checks, and review applicable insurance coverage for their clients.
