Highway Accidents on I-95 Not Unusual - An Attorney On Your Side Can Help Protect Your Rights

Highway accidents involving trucks are not uncommon in the region. Interstate 95 runs through Philadelphia and New Jersey, carrying traffic that includes local commuters, truckers, as well as out-of-staters. With such a heavy volume of traffic using I-95, the New Jersey Turnpike and other major highways in the region, accidents involving trucks and passenger vehicles occur frequently.

In 2008, there were 192 fatal crashes in Pennsylvania and 47 fatal crashes in New Jersey involving large trucks, according to the National Transportation Highway Safety Administration's Fatal Analysis Reporting System.

Negligence Can Cause Highway Accidents in Our Region

The following are examples of truck driver negligence on the highway:

  • The tractor-trailer driver tries to change lanes in order to pass a slower-moving vehicle. When the driver of the semi truck fails to properly check the mirrors, the unseen passenger vehicle has to swerve to avoid being hit. In this case, the truck driver may be negligent for an accident.
  • The driver of an 18-wheeler going too fast on the highway may be unable to slow down when approaching congestion and may cause an accident.
