A truck that was pulling a trailer filled with grain caused a near serious truck accident in Lawrence County Missouri, resulting in a hunt for the truck driver and tractor-trailer.  The truck allegedly used its shear mass and weight to push a smaller passenger vehicle into a busy highway intersection.  The truck then headed west on Missouri Highway 96, resulting in a felony hit and run for the truck driver.  The commercial trucking company that employs the truck driver may also be responsible if it is determined that the company knew of the hit and run and failed to report it to authorities.

Missouri roads and highways are absolutely filled with trucks moving goods at a fast pace.  Most truck drivers do their best to observe Missouri's statutory Rules of the Road and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations.  However, a select few truck drivers can become overly aggressive in an attempt to speed up traffic and get to their destination, or "drop off', as fast as possible.  Getting freight from point A to point B as soon as possible has a direct correlation to driver financial income and the trucking companies bottom line. 

If you have been victimized by an aggressive truck driver, contact a Missouri Truck Accident Injury Lawyer immediately for prosecution of your injury claim.  Don't let aggressive truck drivers go unpunished.  Serious Missouri truck accidents can cause catastrophic personal injuries or result in wrongful death claims.  Don't be victimized twice.
