Truck Accidents in Wisconsin
Collisions involving semi-trucks often result in severe injuries or fatalities due to the size and weight of these vehicles. Highways like Hwy 18 see frequent commercial traffic, increasing the risk of devastating crashes, particularly at intersections.
Common causes of semi-truck accidents include driver fatigue, mechanical failures, improper turns, and distracted driving. When a large truck collides with a smaller vehicle like an SUV, the occupants of the passenger vehicle often suffer the most severe consequences.
For those impacted by fatal truck accidents, seeking legal guidance can help navigate the difficult road ahead, including understanding insurance claims and potential compensation for losses.
