✅ 80,000 lbs of travelling death. What does this mean? ✅ It means that in trucking accidents, the motorist never wins. Semi-Trucks can weight in excess of 80,000 lbs and can be up to 70 to 73 feet long. The semi-truck is normally made up of a cab (standard or sleeper) which can be about 20 feet long. A standard trailer is 50 to 53 feet long, Double trailers or pup trailers are normally about 28 feet in length, while shipping containers (intermodal containers) can be 20 or 40 feet. In other words – trucks are huge. ✅ If a semi collides head-on with even the largest passenger vehicle on the road, for example – the Ford F-250 Super Duty, which weighs in at a whopping 8587 lbs. the outcome would still be devastating and in favor of the semi. No vehicle on the road stands a chance in a collision with a loaded tractor-trailer. ✅ Did you know that our firm specializes in Nationwide trucking accidents?

✅ Generally speaking, the higher up the spinal cord injury occurs, the more severe it will be. ✅The cervical portion of your spine includes the top portion of the spinal cord, comprising seven vertebrae (C-1 to C-7) in the neck. A cervical spinal cord injury occurs when the spinal cord in the C1 to C8 vertebral levels is injured. Being closer to the brain and affecting a larger portion of the body, Cervical spinal cord injuries are the most severe types of spinal cord injuries and often results in complete and permanent sensory loss and may result in quadriplegia. ✅ The economic burden of a spinal cord injury, throughout a quadriplegic’s lifetime, depending on the victim’s age and the location of injury on the spinal cord, can range anywhere from five to $15 million. ✅ Tetraplegia victims will require such direct costs as prescription drugs, non-prescription items, adaptive equipment, home modifications, vehicle modifications, long-term institutional care, attendant care, mobility equipment etc. ✅ It is crucial that if you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, you retain a spinal cord injury lawyer who can immediately help, along with his or her team of occupational therapists, with your discharge back home to a safe and comfortable modified environment and help reduce the economic burden by ensuring you obtain the maximum amount of insurance compensation possible. ✅ Read more about cervical spinal cord injuries by visiting our link in our bio – or by visiting us at hamiltonlawyers.com today. #hamiltonlawyers #hamont #keeprollin #wheelchair #wheelchairstyle #wheelchairlife #spinalcordinjuryawareness #wheelchairfitness #wheelchairsports #wheelchairman #spinalcordinjury #spinal #spinalcordinjuryrecovery #sciawareness #quadriplegia #paralysis #paraplegia #dtburlington #injuryattorney #burlont #sci # quad #Tetraplegia #Tetraplegic #para #hamiltonlawyer #lalande #lawyerinhamilton (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/COVdvdpJy6W/?igshid=12j5y4ehlhvbu
