Understanding Truck Driver Fatigue and Its Risks
Truck driver fatigue occurs when a driver is excessively tired due to long hours on the road, lack of rest, or poor scheduling. Fatigue significantly impairs reaction time, decision-making, and vehicle control, making fatigue-related crashes particularly dangerous on Georgia and South Carolina highways. These accidents often lead to catastrophic injuries and complex liability issues.
Common Injuries Caused by Truck Driver Fatigue Accidents
Fatigue-related truck accidents frequently cause severe injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, internal organ damage, and severe soft tissue injuries. Emotional trauma such as PTSD and anxiety is also common due to the sudden, violent nature of these crashes.
