Navigating Heavy Trucking Hazards In The Jackson Metro Area

Some of the most heavily traveled freight roadways in the Jackson and Ridgeland areas include:

• Interstate 55: Poor visibility, curvy roads and congested traffic make I-55 a dangerous route.
• Interstate 20: I-20’s heavy truck traffic, often traveling at increased speed, combined with some narrow lanes, results in risky driving. An I-20 truck collision attorney can help you.
• U.S. 49: A more rural route, this road hosts trucks, passenger vehicles and farm equipment. Limited visibility and many curves make trucks harder to stop.
• U.S. 51: As a much-used route near Jackson with considerable traffic and many intersections, accidents are common. Out-of-date signage and hard-to-see lane markers cause additional risks.
• Highway 80: MS-80 features city traffic and rural sections that include high-speed traffic and sharp turns, as well as bad weather and a large volume of trucks.

In addition to the issues mentioned above, these routes go through rolling hills and curvy roads that may make large trucks harder to safely control.

Who Can Be Held Liable In A Mississippi Commercial Truck Crash?

Trucking accidents are more complex than passenger vehicle accidents, and the presence of multiple liable parties is one reason why. In general, most car accidents have one or two liable parties. Trucking accident claims are more likely to have multiple liable parties, including:

• The driver
• The trucking company (motor carrier)
• The company that performs maintenance and repairs
• The manufacturer of defective truck parts
• The cargo loader
• The entity responsible for the condition of the roadway

These factors make it critical that you have experienced legal help on your side. Our Jackson truck accident attorneys are here to seek the compensation you need for your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering, regardless of how many parties are involved.
