OFFICES IN MIAMI-DADE


In Miami, accidents involving trucks can occur on city or suburban streets every time a truck has to turn or make a sudden stop. Trucks are big, hard to handle vehicles that most city streets are not designed for; especially when trucks may need to make it through a tight squeeze or when a right or left hand turn is involved. Moving vehicles are not alone when it comes to damages from a truck in motion, as sometimes, parked cars can be on the receiving end of damages from an incident involving a truck trying to turn on a narrow city street corner. Truck accidents involving pedestrians, motor cycle or bike riders are also quite common. Sadly, the results of a truck accident that involves a pedestrian or bike rider can result in serious, if not fatal injuries.

In Miami, the Perazzo Law Firm has ample experience handling truck accident claims for compensation and recommends accident victims or their families, to contact us immediately after an incident which results in injuries or losses from an incident that involves trucks.


DELIVERY TRUCKS AND THE RISKS THEY PRESENT

Operating a truck on city or suburban streets requires added care as city streets present many obstacles as they can be heavily congested with other motor vehicles, bike riders and pedestrians. Truck drivers behind the wheel of commercial vehicles tend to be in a rush to deliver goods or provide services. When there is haste behind the wheel, the chances of an accident increase greatly. Sometimes, it may not be the truck driver's fault, regardless, trucking companies carry insurance with which to compensate those injured or that suffer damages or losses (see insurance policies). There are numerous delivery trucks operating throughout city and suburban streets on a daily basis for companies such as: UPS, AMAZON, FED-EX, and many more. Many times, the truck drivers rely on GPS or mobile services to help guide them through city and suburban streets. When this happens, there could be distraction while behind the wheel. Distracted drivers can cause accidents which can lead to personal injury to innocent third parties.

  4. Take photographs of the truck accident scene and check for any surveillance cameras in the vicinity.
  5. Gather eyewitness testimony of anyone that may have seen the truck accident occur.

THE REASONS WHY TRUCK ACCIDENTS OCCUR ON CITY OR SUBURBAN STREETS

  • Truck driver fatigue
  • Truck driver negligence
  • Reckless driving
  • Operating the truck under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Poor vehicle condition
  • Poorly loaded truck
  • Excessive cargo
  • Poor weather conditions
  • Poor road or street conditions
  • Third party negligence

Whatever the reasons behind a trucking accident, trucking companies carry insurance policies that help cover medical expenses or losses to third parties involved in a truck accident on Miami streets or in Miami-Dade suburbs. Most trucking companies, especially if the trucking company has a fleet of vehicles, will carry BI or Comprehensive insurance that is stacked (SEE Stacked Insurance Coverage). This means that they will cover medical expenses and losses stemming for the truck accident. As, trucks are big and hard to handle motor vehicles, the potential for an accident is great when any of the above possible factors come into play. Furthermore, overall negligence brought on by cell phone use on behalf of other motorists, pedestrians, and all those make their way across city and suburban streets are at risk of being crashed into by a truck. Pedestrian negligence may lead to a truck having to make a sharp unexpected maneuver to dodge the pedestrian and avoid a fatal accident. However, the truck may collide into several parked cars as a result. The number of possible truck accident scenarios are endless, as human error and motor vehicles move about side-by-side throughout Miami avenues, streets and Suburban roads.


TRUCK ACCIDENTS THAT INVOLVE MOTOR CYCLE AND BICYCLE RIDERS

In Miami, the number of motorcycle and bicycle riders is ever-growing. Sadly, when truck accidents involve motor cycle and bicycle riders, the results never favor them as the injuries they sustain can range from serious to fatal. City and suburban streets may differ in terms of traffic congestion, though they resemble each other when a trucking accident occurs. The Perazzo Law Firm knows that suburban streets are becoming popular among Wazer and those relying on GPS to guide them to their destinations quicker. Thus; suburban streets and back roads have become shortcuts (see Accidents on Suburban Streets). Motor cycle and bicycle riders on suburban streets may be taken by surprise by a distracted Uber driver, for example, or an InstaCart driver speeding to make a delivery (see Ride-share and Delivery Services Accidents).

Motorcycle or Bicycle accidents involving trucks may include:

  • Head Injuries
  • Brain Trauma
  • Neck Injuries
  • Shoulder Injuries
