Why Dump Truck Crashes Are So Dangerous

Dump trucks are massive commercial vehicles that play a crucial role in construction and other operations. They’re typically equipped with open-box beds that are hinged at the back and have hydraulic lifts at the front to deposit whatever materials they’re carrying at the delivery site. Also referred to as tipper trucks or dumper trucks, they can carry anywhere from 13,000 to 28,000 pounds of materials. Superdump trucks and semi-trailer bottom dump trucks can carry more. The heavier the load, the more difficult it is to maneuver a dump truck.

When vehicles like this are involved in roadway crashes, the results can be catastrophic. Dump truck accidents can cause life-changing injuries such as:

These injuries can disrupt every aspect of a person’s life. Getting the right treatment and enough financial support can make all the difference in helping a victim and their family start to move forward.

Common Questions

  • How Does Your Firm Investigate a Dump Truck Accident?

    A dump truck accident investigation typically involves an analysis of all the physical evidence at hand, such as tire marks, damage to each vehicle, road conditions, and more. We will also interview witnesses and review police reports and other applicable records and logs. Our investigators, accident reconstruction specialists, and expert witnesses use this information to paint a clear picture of an accident’s cause–and therefore what party (or parties) should be held legally responsible. When you work with Arnold & Itkin, you can trust that nothing will be overlooked in our investigation of your Houston dump truck accident claim.

  • What Is My Case Worth?

Involving medical experts and economists, our team works to determine the full and fair value of each client’s case.

  • Who Can I Hold Liable After a Dump Truck Accident?

    If you were injured in a dump truck accident in the Houston area, you’re probably wondering who is responsible for paying your medical bills, covering your lost earnings, and helping you rebuild. The answer will depend on what caused the accident. Some accidents are caused by more than one contributing factor, such as heavy weather and a truck driver who was texting. We’ll focus on the primary cause of an accident to determine who is legally responsible. Liability for a dump truck accident may fall with the driver of the dump truck; the individual/company responsible for loading the truck; the construction company that employs the dump truck operator; the manufacturer of the dump truck and its parts/systems; the company responsible for maintaining the dump truck and its parts; and even another driver who acted negligently or violated a traffic law. When dump truck drivers are paid by the load, this can increase the chances of speeding, overloading the truck, driving while fatigued, and other forms of recklessness that put everyone on the road at risk. Negligent drivers and the companies they work for should be held accountable.
