Accidents involving tractor-trailer trucks often lead to severe injury, if not death.  When involved in a tractor trailer accident, it is best to consult an experienced truck accident attorney about your legal rights.  Florida personal injury laws state that people who suffer an injury have the right to compensation if they can prove the accident stemmed from some form of negligence.  In a tractor-trailer truck accident case, negligence can take many forms.  Examples of negligence that often to lead to a tractor trailer accident include:

• The truck driver was driving under the influence
• The truck driver ran a red light, ran a stop sign, or made an illegal turn
• The truck driver was driving recklessly
