About Trucking Accidents in Newark, NJ

Located in New Jersey, Newark is the most populous city with an estimated population of more than 282,000 residents. The region consists of the country’s major air, shipping, and rail hubs. Despite having federal trucking regulations in place, New Jersey reports a significant number of tractor-trailer accidents every year. In most cases, negligent truck companies or reckless truck drivers are responsible for causing serious accidents and injuries.

Here are a few common causes of trucking accidents:

  • Driver’s error – Truck drivers need to undergo specific training before obtaining a commercial drivers’ license. When a driver fails to pay attention to the road or does not have the skill required to maneuver a truck properly, fatal accidents can occur.
  • Speeding – Speeding is one of the most common causes of trucking accidents. If these commercial vehicles are fully loaded, truck drivers can lose control of their truck when they need to brake at high speeds.
  • Distraction – Distractions such as texting or fatigue can cause a truck driver to veer off the road, causing major damages along the way.
  • Blind spots – Commercial trucks such as semi-trucks or tractor-trailers are large, resulting in numerous blind spots where truck drivers are unable to spot a moving vehicle traveling beside them.
  • Stimulants – Truck drivers on a long journey are often faced with rushed jobs and long working hours. Therefore, it is common that drivers resort to stimulants such as energy drinks or pills to stay awake. Once these stimulants wear off, the truck drivers may tire rapidly and fall asleep behind the wheel.
