Truck accidents in Missouri occur for a variety of reasons. Sometimes, the driver of the passenger vehicle may be at fault. But quite often, we see that a truck accident occurs because the truck driver is fatigued, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or because the big rig is not properly maintained or is overloaded. When a truck accident is caused by a truck driver’s negligence or as a result of the trucking company’s negligence, then the injured victim or the family of the deceased victim can file a personal injury or wrongful death claim against the at-fault truck driver and trucking company.

There is no question that as consumers, we need trucks to transport goods. We depend on trucks to transport freight and even the food we eat. But, it is also important that these trucks and their drivers abide by traffic laws and drive carefully and responsibly, respecting the safety and well-being of others on the road.
