Pedestrian & Truck Accidents

Alabama Truck Accident Lawyer

When a pedestrian is involved in a truck accident, the results may be catastrophic or deadly. An 18-wheeler, semi truck or big rig may weigh up to 80,000 pounds, and that is just according to the standard trucking regulations in Alabama. Trucking companies may apply for special oversize load permits to extent the size and weight limits for certain vehicles or cargo. When you consider that an adult male pedestrian may weigh anywhere from 150 to 250 pounds on average, it is easy to see who would sustain the brunt of impact. A pedestrian almost stands no chance at all against a large commercial truck.
