    In the United States, there are more than four million truck accidents each year. They account for 18% of all traffic-related fatalities and injuries. Luckily, there are many measures that can reduce this risk. However, mobile phones and other digital devices have certainly increased the number of truck accidents in Rockford.

    Unlike car accidents, truck accidents can lead to severe injuries and damages due to the bigger size of the vehicle. Therefore, it is essential to get legal help from a personal injury lawyer if you are involved in a truck accident in Rockford. A personal injury lawyer can help you with your truck accident claim and ensure that you are properly compensated.

    For now, we will see into different types of truck accidents prevalent in Rockford.

    • Override truck accidents

    Override accidents occur when a truck overrides a smaller vehicle in front of it. They result due to sudden swerving of a tractor-trailer or a turnover.  They can result in injuries to the car drivers, passengers, as well as pedestrians walking across the street. In some cases, even death has been reported in some cases.

    • Underride truck accidents

    They result due to smaller vehicles riding under into the rear end of a truck. Underride truck accidents are quite a common type of accident in Rockford, IL. These accidents can lead to huge injuries as the roof of the vehicle is being dragged by the trailer’s bottom.

    • Jackknife crashes

    Jackknife accidents occur when a truck shifts violently from one position to another. These crashes usually happen on straighter roads and lead to severe injuries. They can even result in death. This type of crash can affect other vehicles on the road as well.

    • Squeeze play

    Squeeze play occurs when a car tries to overtake a truck while the truck is taking a right turn. And as a result, the car usually gets squeezed between the truck and the curb. However, it can also happen when vehicles are coming in the opposite direction. Squeeze play can also cause severe injuries to the passengers in the car, especially if the car was overspeeding.

    • Rollover

    Rollover accidents happen when drivers lose control of their vehicle and it rolls over. The high center of gravity of truck trailers makes them more vulnerable to rollovers. This type of accident usually results in injuries or even death of the driver and passengers.
