Because trucks are so large, they can cause extreme damage and injuries when they collide with cars. Often when these accidents occur, the truck driver is the one to blame. Drivers are under a lot of pressure to deliver on time; as a result, they often drive through the night and became drowsy or turn to drugs for help. At other times, a truck company can be held liable for failing to maintain a truck properly.
