TYPES OF AUSTIN TRUCK DRIVER INJURIES THAT OCCUR

Austin Truck driver accidents can result in many kinds of serious injuries. Common accidents include, but are not limited to:

Austin truck on truck accidents: While truck drivers are the safest operators on the roadways, unfortunately, they too are responsible for causing severe truck on truck accidents. Due to the weight of a loaded 18 wheeler or semi-truck, these kinds of Austin truck driver accidents cause severe injuries and deaths! 

Negligent repairs/maintenance: Austin truckers often rely upon 3rd party mechanics and shops to provide repairs and maintenance on their 18 wheelers, rigs, and trucks. When negligent repairs and or maintenance is done, Austin truck drivers are put in harm’s way, and serious truck accidents and injuries arise!

Tire blowouts and de-treads: Every Austin trucker has had to deal with a blown-out tire or de-tread if they drive long enough! Unfortunately, when a tire blows out, or de-treads at highway speeds, Austin 18 wheelers, and loaded trucks can lose control and crash, causing severe truck driver injuries and deaths!

Austin Truck Driver pedestrian accidents: Austin truck drivers are often victims of pedestrian accidents as they stop to rest at a trucking rest stop or a trucking filling station. Instead of getting needed rest and nourishment, pedestrian truck drivers often find themselves being hit by a negligent truck or car driver, causing severe and life-threatening injuries! 

Loading and unloading injuries: Austin truck drivers operate 18 wheelers and commercial trucks! They are not movers! Unfortunately, Austin truckers are often negligently instructed to assist in the loading up and or unloading of heavy equipment and supplies. When a 3rd party negligently tells a trucker to help and or pick up and or move heavy equipment and or a heavy object, without ensuring that all appropriate safeguards are followed, severe back and bodily injuries can arise! These kinds of injuries can be crippling for an Austin driver to do their jobs of driving a truck!

Motor vehicle accidents: While Austin truck drivers are the safest operators of vehicles on the roads, four wheeler’s are often responsible for serious truck accidents! We hold negligent motor vehicle drivers accountable for the truck accidents they cause!

Austin trucker slip and falls: Under Federal and State department of transportation regulations, Austin truck drivers must stop and rest to ensure their and the public’s safety. Truck stops and truck filling stations must be kept in a safe condition and manner to avoid slip and fall accidents and injuries. When a commercial establishment fails to exercise reasonable care in keeping its premises safe from dangers and defects, Austin truck drivers far too often sustain serious slip and fall injuries!

All of these types of Austin truck driver accidents can cause serious injuries, including orthopedic lumbar and cervical injuries, crushed limbs, burns, amputations, traumatic brain trauma, head injuries, and even death. The negligence of others causes these types of serious truck driver accidents.
