Trucking accidents often result in injuries and deaths to the drivers or passengers of the automobiles with which they collide. Causes of trucking accidents include speeding, unrealistic schedules, truck driver fatigue and 18 wheeler safety issues.
Motorcycle accidents and motorcycle fatalities continue to be a growing concern. Many motorcycle accidents are not the fault of the motorcyclist and are often caused by inattentive drivers who fail to see the motorcycle and pull out from a side road or turn into a motorcyclist at an intersection.
Public transportation injuries are becoming more common as an increasing number of people seek alternative ways to get around in the wake of rising gas prices. From buses, to vanpools, from commuter trains to light rail and passenger ferries, public transportation providers are required to take care for the safety of their passengers.
Drunk Driving Accidents often result in serious injuries and sometimes death. Despite ever increasing criminal sanctions for drunk driving, many people still get behind the wheel after they have been drinking.
