Most Common Causes of Commercial
Truck Accidents In Georgia
Many commercial truck accidents are caused by driver negligence. Some of the most common reasons for big truck accidents include:
- Violation of hours and service rules, causing fatigued or dangerous driving
- Violation of traffic rules, such as speeding, failing to yield, or not keeping a proper lookout
- Distracted driving
- Driving impaired by alcohol, drugs, prescription medications, or over-the-counter sleep aids
- Improper loading
- Improper maintenance or skipping required inspections
- Mechanical defects of the truck or its components
The Big Truck Lawyers at The Graham Firm can conduct a thorough investigation into the potential causes of your accident and work to hold the at-fault parties responsible for your injuries.

Who Is Responsible for Truck Accidents?
18-wheeler accidents are often more complicated because they may involve multiple parties who share the responsibility for the accident. During the investigation of an accident involving a big truck, we determine which of the following parties could be responsible for your injuries:
- Truck company
- Truck driver
- Truck owner
- Leasing company owner
- The company that leases the trailer
- The broker that hired the trucking company
- The company responsible for loading the cargo
- Manufacturer of the truck, trailer, or components of the truck
- Third-party drivers who contributed to the accident
Our Atlanta truck accident attorneys have experience handling complex truck accident cases and understand how to clarify which party may or may not be liable for your injuries.

What To Do After A Truck Wreck In Atlanta GA
After being involved in a truck accident, it's crucial that you receive medical assistance as soon as possible. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent, so it's always best to get examined by a medical professional, even if your injuries seem minor. There are also several other steps you can take to protect your legal rights:
1. If you are able, gather information and evidence at the accident scene. If possible, take pictures of the damage to all vehicles involved in the accident, get the names and any witnesses' contact information, and speak with the police officer who responds to the accident.
2. Report the accident to your insurance company.
3. As a big rig accident victim, be sure to keep a record of all correspondence with your insurance company and any medical bills, repair estimates, and wage loss information.

4. Never give a statement to the trucking company's insurance adjuster. The insurance company will likely contact you soon after the accident and try to get you to give a recorded statement. It's critical for your case that you don't give any statements until you have talked with a lawyer.
5. Contact an experienced truck accident attorney. The sooner you contact an Atlanta attorney, the sooner they can begin investigating your case and working to get you the monetary compensation you are entitled to.
