Truck Accident in Hallandale Beach

What Are Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Hallandale Beach?

Below, our big rig wreck lawyers have compiled a list of some of the top causes of truck accidents happening in the Hallandale Beach area.

  • Driver Fatigue. The number of hours a truck driver can work is limited by federal regulations. However, drivers do not always follow these regulations. When this happens, drivers may become exhausted and fall asleep, resulting in serious accidents.
  • Distracted Driving. Texting while driving, eating, adjusting the radio, or typing into a GPS system can also lead to accidents. Distracted driving is a problem all drivers face, but it is particularly dangerous when 18-wheeler truck drivers become distracted.
  • Substance Use. The use of alcohol or stimulants, such as Adderall or other amphetamines, can impair reaction time, perception, and judgement. Truck drivers may use amphetamines to help them stay awake for long drives. Using these drugs, however, can have devastating effects.
  • Driver Inexperience. Driving a large load takes specialized training and skill. When drivers are not properly trained or lack the requisite experience to be driving a large truck accidents can occur.
  • Improper Loading. Failure to properly load cargo can result in an improper weight distribution in the truck. This can cause jack-knifing or make the truck hard to maneuver and lead to an accident.

Seeking Legal Counsel for Truck Crash Injuries?

Do I Need an MRI After a Hallandale Beach Accident?

Long-term injuries are a very serious concern for anyone who has been involved in a truck crash. Many people falsely believe that a minor truck accident cannot cause serious, long-term injury. However, medical research shows that even a minor crash can cause lasting damage to muscle and soft tissue, as well as displace spinal discs or cause neck and spinal injuries that can be very serious.

An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is a scan using radio waves and magnetic field to create images of internal tissues and organs without using radiation. MRI scans are painless and there are many reasons to get an MRI after an accident. Some examples of reasons to get an MRI include: Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries, Internal Organ Damage, and Joint and Back Pain.

Many people involved in truck accidents may not visibly see an injury or immediately feel pain. As such, they may dismiss seeking immediate medical attention to assess their health post-accident. It is important to remember that the adrenaline one feels after being involved in a semi crash can mask pain. Inflammation may also take up to three days to take place in the body after an 18 wheeler accident. It is even possible to have fractures or tears in tissue without immediately knowing.

Getting an MRI can enhance the validity of a semi accident injury claim. Injuries that cannot be seen visually or through an x-ray will be revealed in an MRI. The most common types of injury after a truck accident that are hidden but revealed with the help of an MRI are: Spinal Cord, Brain and Head, Internal, Back and Neck and Tissue/Muscle.

Insurance companies do not like to pay for MRI’s because they are costly. Insurance companies may even deny a patient’s claim for coverage saying that it’s not necessary, and when appealed, deny the appeal. With an experienced Ovadia Law Group big rig accident lawyer, you can make sure your health is protected by working with doctors who will ensure you receive the care you need and deserve after being involved in a truck accident.
