Northeast Pennsylvania Trucking Accident Attorney

Injured in a Truck Accident in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre or Stroudsburg?

Trucking accidents easily have the potential to cause catastrophic injuries or even death, most often to the drivers or passengers in the other vehicles. According to a 2007 report of nationwide trucking accidents by the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), 75% of the fatalities that occurred as a result of trucking accidents were occupants of other vehicles. 8% were non-occupants (pedestrians or cyclists) and only 17% were the drivers of the trucks. A commercial truck may weigh anywhere from 10,000 to 80,000 pounds, making a collision with any passenger vehicle potentially fatal.
