Commercial trucks are massive machines that can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds. Because of their size and slow responsiveness, even minor mishaps can have devastating consequences. That’s why trucking operators, truck drivers, and other entities involved in commercial trucking are held to strict standards for ensuring public safety. When they fail to uphold their obligations, motorists face increased risks of suffering serious harm.

Tire blowouts are a leading cause of trucking accidents. When a tire blowout occurs, the stability of a commercial truck is greatly compromised, and truck drivers can easily lose control of the vehicle. Unfortunately, this can lead to collisions with other vehicles on public roads and highways, and subject victims to greater risks of harm, including catastrophic injuries and wrongful death.
Investigating the underlying cause of a tire blowout is essential in determining who can be held at fault for victims’ damages, which can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Because there are several factors that can lead to tire blowouts, it becomes critical for victims harmed in these types of trucking accidents to work with attorneys who have the experience and resources to not only conduct investigations that highlight the underlying cause, but also to fight back against negligent parties and insurance companies that want to minimize payouts to victims.
