Unsecured Load Accident

In Southwest Florida, dump trucks, hauling trucks, and construction vehicles travelling on I-75, Route 41, State Roads, County Roads, and our narrower roadways, are an everyday observance.

While many of these trucks are loaded with construction materials, construction site waste, gravel, rocks, and other heavy and dangerous objects, too often we observe the truck drivers operating these large trucks with uncovered loads or unsecured loads.

The fact is, any truck carrying any materials on a roadway or highway with an unsecured load is a dangerous and deadly hazard. When these materials fall out of the dump truck, for example, they become high velocity missiles.  The closing distance between the passenger vehicle and truck's deadly object, at 70 mph on I-75, for example, is too short to avoid the unsecured load contents of falling debris.

The results can be catastrophic, including permanent injury or wrongful death. The unsecured or uncovered falling debris at high speeds can crash through a passenger vehicle  windshield, seriously injuring the driver and occupants.

If you or a family member have been seriously injured in a trucking accident caused by an unsecured load, uncovered load, or improperly loaded truck, then contact our experienced accident attorneys for a free, confidential, discussion of your truck accident injury claim. We will provide you with an honest assessment of your circumstances, and hopefully, we can help.
