Semi-Truck Accidents[ Back ]

Mark Roman knows first hand what it is like to be hit by 18 wheeler semi-truck with 2 tons of roofing tile on the trailer. In 1993, he was hit by an 18 wheeler when it ran a red light in Clearwater, Florida. Life stood still for quite a while. Mark understands the pain and limitations associated with a life changing back injury. He is convinced that this accident occurred so that he could better appreciate the pain and suffering his clients experience after being involved in a serious collision. Mark understands the need for prompt medical attention, qualified physicians, and competent legal counsel to represent victims.

Each year thousands of motorists are serious injured and killed by the negligent operation of semi-trucks or “big rigs.” The companies that the truck drivers work for have a duty to maintain the trucks in a safe condition. They also have a duty to train their drivers to operate the trucks safely. All too often this does not happen. Unsafe driving, oversized loads, driving too long in one day, and other unsafe practices put motorists in danger every day. Unfortunately, the National Highway Transportation Association reports that driver fatigue accounts for more than 30% of all large truck crashes.

Different laws apply to semi-truck drivers than other motorists. Commercial semi-truck drivers are required to abide by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations along with the Commercial Driver’s License Program.
