Serious Truck Accidents
Because large transportation trucks can weigh more than 20 times the weight of an average car, occupants of the smaller vehicle typically sustain very serious injuries, including:
- Spinal cord injury
- Brain injury
- Multiple broken bones
- Severe burn injuries
- Internal organ injuries.
All of these injuries require weeks of recovery and costly medical fees. Neural damage, bone fractures, and internal organ injuries often lead to complications and extended treatment. Severe burn injuries require expensive surgery and extensive rehabilitation to recover from the injuries. And for all of these injuries, there is a potential for permanent disabilities.
