Train/Truck Accident Lawyer
Many of the over 2,000 accidents each year involving motor vehicles and trains in the U.S. are truck and train crashes. Most railroad crossing accidents happen in rural areas, where pickup trucks, SUV’s and commercial work trucks so often are driven. Each year, thousands of serious personal injuries and hundreds of deaths are caused in railroad crossing accidents involving trucks and trains.
The destructive force of a train hitting a truck is huge. Most trains weigh between 125-250 tons, some over 700 tons. Compared to a train, a full-size pickup truck, Suburban or large work truck is tiny. Even a semi tractor trail stuck on or crossing railroad tracks is no match for the power of a locomotive.
When a train hits a truck, the results are as devastating as when a train hits a car. A train hitting a truck is like a truck hitting a tin can. As a result, railroad crossing accidents involving trucks too often cause the truck’s driver and passenger(s) to suffer serious personal injury or death.
When a truck and train crossing collision occurs, the railroad company usually blames the crash on the driver of the truck, even when the railroad company was negligent and at fault for causing the collision.
