Commercial trucks are known to cause over 90% of accidents in Houston. These truck drivers must understand that their actions majorly contribute to most of the accidents on the roads. It is also important for others on the same roads with truck drivers to understand that maximum precaution should be taken while driving near trucks. While small mistakes like ignoring the turn signal prior to turning may cause accidents, major causes of these accidents are rooted in other factors like exhaustion on the part of truck drivers. If the reasons for the crash are anchored to the failure of following the right turn or the driving at a speed that is not legally recommended, a personal injury lawyer from Joel A. Gordon & Associates will be useful in such scenarios. 

If you have been injured in an accident with a truck, it is advisable to get a lawyer who will facilitate the process of compensation.
