Truck Rollover on I-95 Caused by Driver Fatigue

Driving fatigue accidents are becoming very common, and they are increasingly affecting van and truck drivers. In a recent truck accident, a box truck rolled over on I-95 after the driver drifted out of his lane.

The truck accident occurred at 5 a.m. -- one of the primary times for driver fatigue accidents. Fortunately, no one suffered serious personal injuries in the accident, according to the Foster's Daily Democrat. Since they drive long hours, truck drivers are at high risk for driver fatigue and truck accidents can cause severe personal injuries and even fatalities.

If you've been injured in a truck accident, driver fatigue may have played a contributing role. Contact a personal injury lawyer with experience handling driving fatigue cases for more information on how to proceed.

When you are interviewing personal injury attorneys ask critical questions, like: how long have you been practicing; what is the largest settlement or verdict you've obtained, and do you have experience with bus or van accidents caused by fatigued drivers?
