Thoughts on Large Truck Accident with Buick

We do not have enough details to draw a conclusion in this incident. We are left with many questions: Was the truck driving too fast for the current conditions? Was the truck driver distracted? Could the trucker have prevented colliding with the Buick? We have handled many cases where a truck driver could have avoided an accident; however, their reaction time was slow since they were distracted. Truck drivers cannot afford to be texting, talking, or daydreaming in situations where seconds count. It is important to consider all wrongdoing following a serious accident to ensure all those suffering receive the answers they deserve.

An independent investigation by trained professionals will lead to answers to the above questions. If wrongdoing is found, the wrongdoers must be held accountable.

I wish the woman in this accident a speedy recovery.
