Here at Recovery Assist, we understand how frightening it can be if you are involved in a road accident of any kind.
If a lorry or heavy goods vehicle (HGV) is involved, then due to the sheer size and weight of the vehicles, then it can seem even more terrifying.
And often the damage – and injuries to drivers, passengers and pedestrians - can be more serious because of these types of vehicles.
But we can assure you that we can take away all the worries you may have about your lorry or HGV accident, guiding you through the process of claiming compensation, simply and trouble free.
Can I Claim?
The most common causes of road accidents involving a Lorry or HGV are:
- Tailgating - Lorries and HGVs can be particularly dangerous for other motorists who follow them too closely. The chances are they would not have enough time to react to avoid a collision if you braked suddenly.
- Failure to look properly – Lorries and HGV tend to have a larger blind spot
- Condition of vehicles - Worn or damaged tyres can cause serious accidents.
- High winds - Large vehicles such as lorries or HGVs with relatively flat sides are more likely to be blown over in strong winds
- Bridge strikes – The height of many lorries and HGVs increases their risk of hitting the underside of a bridge, or an overhanging tree
- Badly loaded vehicles - Overloaded vehicles with poorly-secured or poorly-stacked loads are more at risk of turning over or shedding their loads.
