Who should you speak to following a trucking accident?

On behalf of Gerber Law | Dec 7, 2020 | Truck Accidents

If there’s one thing that you can count on after a motor vehicle accident, it’s that you’ll receive numerous calls from insurance adjusters looking to have you tell them about the events leading up to your crash as well as how you’re feeling in...

The deception of “alertness tricks” for truck drivers

On behalf of Gerber Law | Nov 30, 2020 | Truck Accidents

Truckers often work long shifts and spend hours driving mundane expanses of roadway. With risks including poor health, boredom and quiet among others, fatigue can quickly diminish a trucker’s vigilance and awareness. A common term that truckers use is...

The dangers of overloaded semi-trucks

On behalf of Gerber Law | Nov 13, 2020 | Truck Accidents

Thousands of big rigs roll through Florida communities every day, delivering goods on a tight schedule. Tractor-trailers can weigh more than 80,000 pounds when loaded, which can make stopping quickly impossible. Typical passenger sedans weigh less than 4,000 pounds...

Where and when do truck accidents most commonly occur?

On behalf of Gerber Law | Sep 28, 2020 | Truck Accidents

How does drowsy driving affect truckers?

On behalf of Gerber Law | Sep 23, 2020 | Truck Accidents

On behalf of Gerber Law | Jun 24, 2020 | Truck Accidents

An overloaded truck is a danger to unsuspecting motorists

On behalf of Gerber Law | Mar 19, 2020 | Truck Accidents

Perhaps you use a portion of I-75 every day during the week to drive to and from your office, and you share the freeway with 18-wheelers.  Some big rigs carry overloaded cargo, which could cause a serious collision. An overloaded truck is hard to spot unless you are...

Drowsiness poses a serious risk for truckers, others

On behalf of Gerber Law | Mar 17, 2020 | Truck Accidents

Due to spending long hours on the road, driving through the night and other such factors relating to the job, commercial truck operators have a substantial risk of driving while drowsy. Although the largest danger of getting behind the wheel while overly tired may...

The feds plan to research the causes of large truck crashes

On behalf of Gerber Law | Feb 12, 2020 | Truck Accidents

Earlier this month, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) announced that they have commissioned a study into the causes of large tractor-trailer crashes. A spokesperson for the organization announced that they expect their research to yield new...

How can the trucking injury reduce accident rates?

On behalf of Gerber Law | Feb 6, 2020 | Truck Accidents
