Commercial Truck Collisions Caused by Poor Road Conditions
Commercial trucks are more likely to be unable to avoid a road hazard or maintain control under wet or icy conditions. When a tractor trailer loses control because of a road hazard and collides with a car or SUV, motorists and passengers can be severely or fatally injured.
At Dallas W. Hartman, P.C., our team of accomplished attorneys and independent experts and investigators can step in immediately to investigate a severe truck accident and build a case against those whose negligence caused or contributed to the accident, such as:
- Hazardous road conditions caused by negligent maintenance or defective road design
- Failure to post warning signs or safety information (sharp turns, ice danger, etc.)
- Improper or insufficient construction zone signage
- Defective road entrance or exit design or construction

Who is responsible for defective road design or hazardous driving conditions?
Truck accidents are often extremely complicated, involving numerous potential and actual causes. Many different individuals, companies and governmental entities may share blame. Trucking and loading companies may overload a truck, impairing its maneuverability. Exhausted drivers working over the legal number of hours may be less able to avoid highway hazards or to handle unsafe road conditions.
When a municipality — town, city, county or state government — or governmental agency is fully or partially responsible for a catastrophic truck accident, the team of accomplished Pittsburgh personal injury attorneys at Dallas W. Hartman, P.C. have the experience and resources to hold them accountable for the harm they have caused.
