Florida, "The Sunshine
State", maintains a passionate reflection of its diverse history and
culture. Located in the southeast corner of the
United States, this subtropical paradise nestles between the
Gulf of Mexico and
Atlantic Ocean. As
of the 2000 Census, Florida
reported a population of nearly
16 million residents, with
150,624 of which were located in
Tallahassee , its capital.
Did you know that every 16 minutes
a person is killed or injured in a truck accident? Did you know that big rig
truck accidents continue to increase? Even with these frightening scenarios and
statistics, powerful trucking industry lobbyists continue to call for the
weakening of truck safety rules and regulations to reap a higher profit.
When truck collisions do occur, trucking companies involved in
the accident often send representatives to the accident scene.
These agents work to handle everything at the scene of the accident so that they
can limit or mitigate their company?s liability.
