Oftentimes, danger follows a serious accident with a tractor-trailer and may cause serious injuries as well as potential fatalities for any parties involved. Driving a tractor-trailer requires experience and extensive training, and if the driver does not possess those qualifying factors, they may fail to operate the truck safely and engage in a devastating crash. Even a skilled truck driver may find it challenging to maneuver a large truck amid congested highways.
