Wright OAJ Trucking Seminar – Columbus Ohio Hilton A truck crash is not an accident anymore than a plane crash is. So why is the word “accident” in our website address? Almost all commercial motor vehicle crashes are preventable because they are the result of human error and truck company system failures. Our law firm has been committed to trucking safety and helping the victims of truck crashes for decades. Most people still input “truck accidents” and not “truck crashes” when searching online. We have owned the website TruckAccidents.com since 2001. If we knew in 2001 what we know now, we would have chosen a different website address.
