Langley, VA Woman Injured in Tractor Trailer Accident
Posted on Jun 22, 2011
A serious accident was recently reported on Interstate 64 near Newport News, VA. The Virginia accident involved a semi truck and a small car, which was t-boned during the crash. The driver of the car slammed on her brakes to slow with traffic. This caused her car to turn perpendicular to the flow of traffic. Moments later, a semi truck hit her, causing serious injuries.
The driver, 22-year-old Jessica Aguero, was taken by helicopter to Norfolk Sentara General Hospital with critical injuries. Virginia State Police report that the driver of the large truck has been charged with following too closely. The driver of the car has not been charged with any traffic violations.
This is not the only recent accident involving a large truck on Virginia's I 64. Earlier this year a truck driver fell asleep at the wheel, crashing and spilling his load of blood plasma.
Both accidents illustrate how truckers' inattention and careless behaviors cause large truck accidents in Virginia. As VA personal injury lawyers we see too many people injured, even killed, by the careless mistakes of a truck driver.
The staff and attorneys at Tavss Fletcher hope that Ms. Aguero is well on her way to making a full recovery.Read More About Langley, VA Woman Injured in Tractor Trailer Accident...
