18-Wheeler Accidents - Semi-Truck Accidents - Tractor Trailer Accidents

America needs big trucks to move the nation's goods around the fifty states. Unfortunately, while trucks are getting bigger and bigger, they must share the same highways and byways as cars which get smaller and smaller each year. When a big truck gets in an accident with a passenger car, it is usually the car that gets the worst of it.

Every year in the U.S., there are nearly 500,000 tractor-trailer accidents (semi-truck accidents) with approximately 5,000 of these fatal. In fact, one out of every eight fatal auto accidents is caused by a collision with a large truck. Typically, truck drivers escape these collisions unscathed. Car passengers are rarely so lucky.

There are special safety laws, rules, and procedures that apply to trucks and not to cars. Tennessee and federal law regulates truck maintenance and the required forms and inspections for each semi-truck. These reports in the hands of experienced council such as attorneys Greg Coleman and Adam Edwards can be crucial evidence in establishing the condition of the truck and reconstructing the accident.
