Truck Accidents in Tewksbury, Lowell and Andover, Massachusetts
Truck accidents are some of the most of the serious auto accidents that occur on the road today. Because a commercial truck is large and may weigh in excess of 80,000 pounds, when it collides with a smaller vehicle the result is catastrophic. A passenger car may literally be crushed by a commercial tractor trailer, semi truck or big rig.
In 2007, 26 large trucks (those weighing over 1,000 pounds) were involved in fatal auto accidents in Massachusetts. Of the truck accident fatalities throughout the U.S., 75% of those who lost their lives were occupants of the other vehicles, not the truck. Another 8% were non-occupants, such as pedestrians or bicyclists. These statistics were compiled by the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), and show not only how serious a truck accident can be but also that those that suffer most are usually people other than the truck driver.
