Jack-Knife Accidents in San Francisco

Jack-Knife Accidents Explained

Most people know that truck accidents can be caused by a vast array of factors, but what they do not know is that a leading factor is truck driver's braking too suddenly.  When a truck driver suddenly presses down on the brake, and the brake is improperly adjusted, a jack-knife accident may occur.  Jack-knife accidents occur whenever there is loss of pedal pressure on brakes or when there is some mechanical defect that results in brake failure.  Often times, defective brakes go unnoticed because trucking companies fail to perform routine maintenance on their trucks.  If companies were more diligent, jack-knife accidents could easily be prevented.
