Why Truck Accidents Are Different From Other Crashes

Unlike typical car accidents, trucking accidents involve layers of complexity:

  • Federal & State Regulations – Truck drivers and trucking companies must follow strict safety rules on hours-of-service, vehicle maintenance, and cargo loading. Violations of these state and federal regulations often play a role in crashes.
  • Multiple Liable Parties – Responsibility may lie with the driver, the trucking company, maintenance contractors, or even manufacturers.
  • Severe Injuries – Because of the size and weight of commercial trucks, collisions frequently cause traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, broken bones, or wrongful death.
  • Aggressive Insurance Defense – Trucking companies and their insurers act quickly to minimize payouts. Without strong legal representation, victims are often left with far less than they deserve.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Milledgeville

Truck wrecks on local highways like U.S. 441, GA-22, and Hwy 49 are often caused by:

  • Driver fatigue from exceeding hours-of-service limits
  • Distracted driving, including cell phone use behind the wheel
  • Improperly secured or overloaded cargo
  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Poor truck maintenance or mechanical failures
  • Driving under the influence

Our team conducts thorough investigations to uncover the true cause of the crash and identify every liable party.

What To Do After a Truck Accident in Milledgeville

If you or a loved one has been injured in a trucking accident, here are important steps to protect your health and your legal rights:

  1. Call 911 – Get emergency medical help and ensure the accident is documented by police.
  2. Seek Medical Care – Even if you don’t feel seriously hurt, some injuries show up hours or days later.
  3. Document the Scene – Take photos or videos of the vehicles, roadway, skid marks, and your injuries if possible.
  4. Gather Witnesses – Record names and contact information of anyone who saw the crash.
  5. Contact a Truck Accident Lawyer – The sooner you involve an attorney, the stronger your case will be. Trucking companies often send investigators to the scene immediately to protect their interests. You need someone protecting yours.

Compensation Available After a Truck Accident

If negligence caused your accident, you may be entitled to recover damages for:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Wrongful death damages (for families who have lost a loved one)

At Brodie Law Group, we fight for the full and fair compensation you deserve, not the lowball settlement the insurance company offers.
