Garbage truck accidents can be some of the most tragic trucking accidents. Because garbage trucks work in urban areas, garbage truck accidents frequently involve pedestrians (particularly young children), bicyclists, as well as cars and motorcycles. In fact no other commercial vehicle is involved in more bicycle fatalities than a garbage truck.
Garbage trucks typically have special provisions in the codes of most states which relieve them of many of the laws that you and I must follow on a day to day basis. While they are relieved of following some of these laws, they are not relieved from the duty to drive with care.
In a wrongful death case involving a garbage truck accident, the surviving family members can sue the garbage truck company under the state wrongful death statutes for the fatal truck accident.
