A trucking accident can upend not just the person involved but their entire family, and TLC Trial Team’s Winter Haven truck accident attorneys focus on the outsized damage large commercial vehicles cause on Florida roads. The firm points to state data showing just over 3,800 large-truck accidents reported in Florida in a single year, despite commercial drivers being required to complete special training and hold a commercial driver’s license.
The firm breaks down how the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration categorizes the human causes behind these crashes, from a driver being distracted by texting or a phone call, to fatigue or physical impairment preventing a driver from fulfilling their duties, to poor decision-making such as speeding or following too closely, to simply panicking and losing control of the vehicle. TLC Trial Team also cites broader contributing factors the FMCSA tracks, including inadequate awareness of surroundings, unfamiliarity with the roadway, unfavorable weather, and brake problems.
The firm’s office is located at 1102 Florida Ave S, Lakeland, and clients can call 877-299-5539 to discuss a truck accident claim. TLC Trial Team lists a 1,400,000 dollar recovery for a personal injury victim among its case results, and it also offers practical guidance for avoiding truck accidents, such as merging cautiously and staying out of a trucker’s blind spot.
