When your injury is caused by a corporation’s negligence, or by an individual who is covered by their company, you might want to file a claim against that company. For example, if you use a product that does not have disclaimers for use and you get an injury or illness, you could file a product liability claim against the company. But how challenging is suing a major corporation?

To properly haul goods and services across the country, 18-wheeler trucks are often necessary. While these trips benefit the economy, businesses, and consumers, everything can change in a split second when an accident happens.

While there is always the chance for a large truck to get into an accident, work zones create special challenges for drivers in tractor-trailers and 18-wheelers. The challenges often have to do with space restriction. When road work is in progress on multi-lane highways, the crew may have to reduce the number of lanes for drivers. Vehicle occupants in smaller cars are at serious risk of injury or death in the event of an accident with an 18-wheeler.

As major roadways are repaired throughout our state, it’s a good idea to be aware of the potential dangers presented by the addition of work zones on our highways and interstate. A car accident can happen for a number of reasons, but there are some unique causes associated with those that happen in construction zones. In order to understand those factors, you first have to understand how most work zones are set up and arranged.

While construction work often takes place as the weather improves, there are instances where work zones are present on major highways all throughout the year. With the construction on Interstate 30 happening through the end of 2019 and beyond, it’s important to take the time to recognize how often collisions happen in Arkansas work zones. Understanding the frequency and why they happen can aid in their prevention in the future.

If you’ve been involved in a work zone accident you believe to be the fault of someone else, you can pursue a personal injury claim to seek the compensation you need to recover.

If you experience chronic pain from an injury that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you deserve compensation for your suffering.
