Fatal Truck Accidents in Alabama
A fatal truck accident can change the life of your family forever. Regrettably, thousands of innocent people are killed as a result of truck accidents in the United States each year. There are many instances where these auto collisions take the lives of innocent people here in the state of Alabama.
There are many factors that can contribute to a fatal truck accident, including driver fatigue, distracted driving, and unsafe road conditions. When a large commercial truck is involved in an accident, the results can be devastating. The sheer size and weight of these vehicles can cause serious damage and often result in fatalities.
Interestingly, the majority of fatal truck accidents in Alabama occur on weekends, with Saturday being the most dangerous day of the week. This may be due to the fact that there are more trucks on the road during weekends as businesses take advantage of the extra traffic.
