Overloaded Truck Accidents

Philadelphia Overloaded Truck Accident Lawyers

An overloaded truck or one that is traveling down the road with an unsecured load is a dangerous and deadly hazard. Traveling down a highway with other drivers is sometimes challenging enough. You should not have to dodge rocks and other debris coming from a truck carrying too much of a load that is not secure. Sometimes that "falling debris" takes the form of larger items that can do significant damage to your car or crash through your windshield, seriously injuring you and others.

When a truck is overloaded, it becomes a very dangerous vehicle. For example, the results of excessive weight include the following:

  • Equipment failure, in particular, tires that cannot bear the weight
  • Inadequate brakes for the amount of weight carried resulting in longer stop times
  • Excessive speed on downhill runs coupled with an inability to stop within the truck's usual stopping distance
  • If improperly distributed, the overload may result in a truck rolling over as the weight shifts

Preventing the contents of a trailer from falling out is many times not enough to stop accidents from happening. As the truck travels, the load shifts. If the center of gravity is off by even a small amount, that truck could tip over and land on the car next to them. That driver and those passengers face serious injury and death. It could easily be you and your family dealing with that hazard.
