Tractor-Trailer Underride Protection Does the Opposite

As Board Certified Personal Injury Trial Attorneys, Tony and I have been advocating for years that the current U.S. standard for underride protection on trucks is insufficient. In fact, the standard is deadly because no protection is in fact provided by the underride guards that are on the back of trailers. The Insurance Institute of Highway Safety recently tested the U.S. standard against the Canadian standard and the result is a fail for the U.S. standard. It is time for the governement to revisit the standard and make it stronger so that drivers are actually given protection by the underride guards.

Take a moment to check out or Truck Wreck Library page for more information on these underride protection tests and truck accidents in general. If you would like more information call the Firm at 877-307-9500 and speak with one of our Attorneys - Chad or Tony - both of whom are Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
