New Braunfels No-Zone Truck Accidents Lawyer
All cars have blind spots that can make driving a dangerous task. However, due to the size and shape of 18-wheelers and semi trucks, these bigger vehicles have significantly larger blind spots that cause a corresponding increase in danger. There are many places in which a small car can become invisible to a truck driver, and these “no-zones” should be avoided in order to stay safe while on the road.
Although regular car drivers should avoid the no-zones around large trucks, truck drivers can still be held responsible for accidents that occur in this area. If you or someone you love has suffered in an accident caused by a truck driver’s failure to acknowledge the no-zones, you may be eligible for financial compensation for your suffering.

Dangers of No-Zones
18-wheelers and other large trucks are equipped with several mirrors and other tools used to help drivers make sure that they are not driving too close to other vehicles. Although these may be helpful additions to the truck, they may not completely remove the dangers of no-zones. The areas that most commonly lead to no-zone accidents include:
- Each side of the truck about where the truck meets the trailer
- An area just behind the trailer
- Directly in front of the truck
Car drivers should stay out of the no-zone so that they can protect themselves and their passengers. However, there are certain times when a truck driver is liable for accidents in this zone.
