Truck Accidents

Truck accidentCommercial trucks operated by overworked and sleep-deprived drivers are a hazard to anyone traveling on Washington roads. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, almost four thousand people die every year in large truck crashes. At Kraft Davies Olsson PLLC, in Seattle, we provide a strong voice to accident victims and their families. We represent those injured or killed in trucking accidents all over the state of Washington.

We have decades of experience pursuing a full financial recovery for the current and long-term damages accident victims have suffered. We have the skills and legal resources to hold truck drivers and their employers accountable for any reckless actions resulting in catastrophic injuries or fatalities.

When Regulations are Ignored, Truck Accidents Happen

Federal regulations govern the trucking industry. Drivers must take periodic breaks and stay on the road for only a certain amount of time. The loads they carry must be within the law to avoid unnecessary hazards on the road. However, rules are only effective when trucking companies follow them. When truck drivers fail to take adequate rest breaks or avoid properly loading their rig, serious and fatal trucking accidents can happen.
