The Truck Accident Victim May Have No Memory of the Accident

Often, someone injured in a Lexington area truck accident is instantly knocked unconscious, and has no memory of the collision. It is up to investigators to uncover the truth about the cause(s) of the accident and / or the injury -- including perhaps one or more of the following factors:

• Overcrowded Lexington, Georgetown, Winchester, or Richmond area traffic conditions, with no way of escape for cars when a truck turns without signaling
• Improper lane changes on I-64, I-75, the Bluegrass Parkway, or elsewhere
• Violation of right of way
• Transportation of hazardous materials
• Railroad crossing accidents
• Fire resulting from collision of a truck and another vehicle
• Defective truck components, such as tires, brakes, steering, or couplings
• Loss of traction in snowy or icy conditions
• Driver fatigue
• Lack of training
• Incomplete, or falsified safety inspections
