When 18-wheelers and other large trucks carry defective tires, the tires can blow out, causing the trucks to skid into traffic or even rollover. Truck accidents caused by faulty tires are often the result of negligence on the part of a tire manufacturer or due to negligent tire maintenance and inspection. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, it is important to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer.

Semi-Truck Accidents and Defective Tires
Operating a semi truck with under-inflated tires can result in tire separation and tire blowouts. Tire failure can cause the truck driver to lose control of the vehicle, putting the lives of other drivers and passengers at risk. Faulty tires on a semi truck can result in a truck rollover accident, which can cause significant injury and even wrongful death.
Truck drivers and trucking companies are required by federal regulations to regularly inspect tires for signs of wear, and to make sure they are properly inflated. If they fail in this responsibility and the result is a truck accident, injury victims are entitled to compensation for their losses.
