In September 2010, eastbound I-70 in downtown St. Louis was closed for more than 3 hours following a tractor trailer accident that also involved 3 passenger vehicles and a flatbed truck carrying large concrete sewer liners.

The accident occurred as a result of one motorist stopping to move debris out of the highway. Traffic slowed down, but reports indicate the tractor trailer was unable to stop in time and hit the flatbed truck, which tipped and spilled the concrete sewer liners on the roadway. Fortunately, there were no serious truck accident injuries and only a few people needed medical attention.

All the drivers and any passengers involved in this truck accident were fortunate, indeed. In many tractor trailer accidents, injuries can be severe or even fatal. The more severe types of truck accident injuries can include:

• Broken bones
  
• Neck and back injuries
  
• Spinal cord injuries
  
• Traumatic brain injuries
  
• Wrongful death
