Truck Crashes in Myrtle Beach Are More Common Than You Think
Whether it's a semi-truck headed to the port, a box truck delivering supplies to Ocean Boulevard businesses, or a tour bus near Broadway at the Beach, commercial vehicle accidents can happen anywhere in the Grand Strand. The mix of locals, visitors, and trucks creates a volatile traffic environment, especially during peak tourism seasons.
Some of the most common causes of truck accidents in Myrtle Beach include:
- Inattentive or distracted driving
- Fatigue from long-haul schedules
- Speeding to meet delivery deadlines
- Poor visibility during fog or coastal storms
- Brake failure or mechanical neglect
- Unfamiliar drivers navigating crowded streets
These accidents often happen fast—but their consequences can last a lifetime.
Life-Changing Injuries Require Skilled Legal Advocacy
Because of the sheer size of commercial trucks, injuries in these accidents are often far more severe than those seen in car wrecks. At our firm, we work with Myrtle Beach clients recovering from:
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Multiple fractures or orthopedic trauma
- Internal bleeding or organ damage
- Disfiguring burns or road rash
- Post-traumatic stress and emotional trauma
Medical care alone can cost thousands—and that doesn’t begin to account for lost wages, long-term rehab, or the toll on your family. We fight to make sure your recovery includes the resources you need for every part of your healing.
Who’s at Fault? It’s Not Always Obvious.
One of the most important things to understand about truck accident cases is this: it’s not just about what the driver did. In fact, most successful claims identify multiple layers of responsibility.
We’ll investigate your case to determine whether the following parties played a role:
- The truck driver
- The trucking company or contractor
- The cargo loading team
- A maintenance or repair service provider
- The manufacturer of a faulty part or system
Using black box data, dashcam footage, service logs, and more, we build your case the right way—from the ground up, with trial in mind.
