Though Maryland is a small state, it borders the nation’s capital and is home to several highway arteries out of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Commuters — such as politicians, businessmen, and students — travel into D.C. from Maryland on a daily basis. Also traveling to the D.C. area from Maryland are large semi-trucks carrying goods to businesses, stores and restaurants.
Major Interstates travel through the state of Maryland. These include I-68, I-70, and I-95. In addition, US highways such as the historic Route 1, Route 11, and Route 40, traverse the state carrying goods to the state and throughout the country. Since passenger vehicles and tractor-trailer trucks travel the same highways, accidents can occur.
Accidents occur for many reasons. In an effort to deliver the load on time, some truck drivers may feel compelled to take stimulants or amphetamines to stay up longer. Others may drive while they are tired in order to push through to their destination. Still others, inexperienced in the varied weather conditions of the area, may not know how to drive in inclement weather conditions. These are only a few factors that can have devastating effects. Other common causes of truck accidents include faulty equipment, dangerous roadways and more.
