What to do if you suffer from a DUI with a truck

Truck accidents are typically more dangerous than those with cars. Due to the reckless nature of a DUI, these types of accidents can become worse than in regular conditions. Truck accidents typically carry more weight than regular commercial vehicles and they usually carry additional cargo that can cause additional damage upon impact.
