Every year, commercial trucking collisions cause senseless catastrophic personal injuries and wrongful death. According to the National Highway Safety Administration, there are in excess of 400,000 collisions involving commercial trucks each year in the United States. Unfortunately, these collisions result in thousands of fatality injuries to innocent victims. Due to the size and weight variance between large commercial trucks and passenger cars, the magnitude of injuries and damages are often substantial.

When truck collisions occur, it is not uncommon for trucking companies and their insurance companies to start collecting evidence at the collision scene in order to gain an early jump on anticipated claims by victims and their families.
