The deadliest crashes in New York and the rest of the world involve trucks and a smaller vehicle. One of the worst cases is when a car crashes into the side of a truck. Why is this worse than crashing into the back? At the side angle, cars are more likely to slide under the truck, wiping off the top portion of the car and killing drivers and passengers on impact.
The pros and cons of settling with a trucking company
Injuries you suffer as the result of a collision with a commercial truck can be serious and have ramifications for the rest of your life. While a New York civil trial may take some time, pursuing the compensation you deserve for your pains remains your right. However, some trucking companies may try to persuade injury victims to settle a collision claim through alternative means. While an injury victim can benefit from settling with a trucking company, there are still drawbacks to watch out for.

The trucking industry is a vital part of the U.S. economy, and safely sharing the road requires extra precautions.
