Truck Accident in New Jersey

Truck accidents are among the most devastating crashes on New Jersey roads. When a fully loaded commercial truck, tractor-trailer, or 18-wheeler collides with a passenger vehicle, the results are often catastrophic or fatal. These massive vehicles can weigh up to 80,000 pounds, compared to the average car's 4,000 pounds, making the physics of these collisions overwhelmingly destructive. At The Law Office of Bilal A. Jaloudi, we have the resources and experience to take on trucking companies and their powerful insurance carriers.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents

Driver Fatigue

Despite federal Hours of Service regulations, many truck drivers are pressured by their employers to exceed safe driving limits. Fatigued driving is a leading contributor to truck crashes.

Improper Loading & Overweight Cargo

Improperly secured or overloaded cargo can shift during transit, causing the truck to tip, jackknife, or lose control.

Mechanical Failures

Brake failures, tire blowouts, and steering malfunctions caused by negligent maintenance are common factors in truck accidents.

Distracted & Impaired Driving

Truck drivers who use phones, eat while driving, or operate under the influence of drugs or alcohol put everyone on the road at serious risk.

Trucking Company Negligence

Companies that fail to properly train drivers, maintain vehicles, or enforce safety protocols can be held directly liable for accidents.

Blind Spot Accidents

Large trucks have significant blind spots on all four sides. Drivers who fail to check these zones before changing lanes or turning cause devastating side-impact crashes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can be held liable in a truck accident?+
Liability can extend beyond just the driver. The trucking company, cargo loader, truck manufacturer, maintenance company, and even the shipper can all be responsible. We investigate every party to maximize your recovery.
Why are truck accident cases more complex than car accidents?+
Trucking cases involve federal regulations (FMCSA), commercial insurance policies worth millions, multiple potential defendants, and complex evidence like electronic logging devices, black boxes, and maintenance records. You need an attorney who knows this area of law.
What is the statute of limitations for truck accidents in NJ?+
Generally 2 years from the date of the accident. However, if a government entity is involved (e.g., a municipal vehicle), the notice deadline can be as short as 90 days. Call us immediately.
What kind of compensation can I recover?+
You may be eligible for medical bills, future medical treatment, lost income, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and in cases of egregious negligence, punitive damages.
What if the truck driver was cited by police but I'm still being blamed?+
Police citations help your case but don't automatically determine liability. We conduct our own investigation and build an independent case for you.
