Truckin’ into the Summer of ’17.

The Grateful Dead just celebrated their 50th anniversary and America has been truckin’ for over a century.  Truck safety has certainly improved over the decades, but on the freeways of the Great Southwest there are still some trucking accidents that need aggressive representation for those on the wrong end.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) keeps track of such things.  In the most recent complete reporting year of 2014 nearly 4000 large trucks were involved in fatal accidents.  In a one-year period leading up to that, the number of large trucks involved in injury accidents rose by over 20%.  It seems to be getting worse!

So, what is going on here?  The truth is, we live in an area where big trucks drive fast and not always safely.  If you or a loved one was injured in an accident involving a truck of over 10,000 pounds you know who to call - The office of Ken Wagner Law in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Ken and his staff is the Great Southwest’s truck accident law firm (505) 242-6300.
