Understanding Commercial Accident Injuries in California
Commercial vehicle accidents involve vehicles used for business purposes, such as semi-trucks, 18-wheelers, delivery trucks, buses, and construction vehicles. These accidents often result in catastrophic injuries due to the sheer size and weight of commercial vehicles. With its extensive freeway network and bustling cities, California sees a high volume of commercial traffic, increasing the risk of accidents, particularly in densely populated areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Jose.
Common causes of commercial vehicle accidents in California include:
- Driver Fatigue: Commercial drivers often face pressure to meet deadlines, leading to long hours and driver fatigue, a significant concern on California's highways.
- Distracted Driving: Using cell phones, GPS devices, or other distractions can lead to devastating accidents on busy roads like those in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
- Improper Maintenance: Neglecting vehicle maintenance can result in mechanical failures and accidents, posing risks to drivers in all California cities.
- Overloading: Exceeding weight limits can affect vehicle handling and braking, increasing the risk of accidents, particularly on California roads with heavy truck traffic.
What to Do After a Commercial Vehicle Accident in California
- Seek Medical Attention: Prioritize health and safety by seeking immediate medical care.
- Report the Accident: Contact the California Highway Patrol or local police to report the accident and obtain a copy of the accident report.
- Gather Information: Collect information from all parties involved, including drivers, witnesses, and insurance details. Take photos of the accident scene and any visible injuries.
- Preserve Evidence: If possible, secure any evidence related to the accident, such as dashcam footage or witness statements.
