Large Load Vehicle Accidents in Pennsylvania
Crashes involving vehicles hauling furniture, appliances, or other large loads come with increased risk—not just to drivers, but to anyone sharing the road. When such cargo shifts or spills, it can create unpredictable and hazardous conditions, especially on narrower streets like South 13th in Easton.
These types of accidents can be triggered by sudden stops, improperly secured items, or driver error. Injuries may occur not only from the collision itself but from debris or cargo striking bystanders or other vehicles.
Pennsylvania law requires all transported goods to be properly secured, and commercial drivers must adhere to additional safety regulations. Unfortunately, even with these rules in place, accidents like Tuesday’s continue to happen.
If you or a loved one has been hurt in a crash involving cargo or commercial transport, it’s important to seek both medical treatment and legal guidance as soon as possible. Claims involving large or unsecured loads often involve multiple parties—including freight companies or contractors—making them more complex to resolve.
