Did you know that nearly 4,368 people died in 2007 because of severe truck accidents?  Were you aware that an additional 136,438 people were involved in non-fatal truck accidents during that same year?  These frightening statistics, which were issued by the Fatality Analysis Reporting System and the Motor Carrier Management Information System highlight precisely why it is important for truck drivers and other motorists to use caution while on the road.

In an effort to help keep more drivers safe, LegalView has announced that it will be relaunching the truck accident information portal on its website (http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/9/prweb1398744.htm).  The website, which strives to be the web’s number one source for legal information, will be providing updated facts and articles regarding truck safety through its relaunched portal. 

In addition to providing information about truck accidents and safety, the site also provides visitor with access to information about a variety of other legal issues, ranging from health issues to other vehicle-related legal information.  The site serves as a public service from the Legal WebTV Network, LLC, which was founded by a variety of law firms throughout the country.  Although the website does provide some very useful information, it is important to note that it does not serve to replace legal counsel if you find yourself involved in an accident or any other legal dispute
