Serving Missouri Truck Accident Victims
Commercial trucks can carry loads of more than 80,000 pounds at speeds of up to 70 mph. If there are any imbalances or other issues with the truck under these conditions, the consequences can be catastrophic. Tires are the first point of contact, meaning they need to be in excellent shape if the load is to get where it needs to go.
When truck companies fail to stay up-to-date on their tire condition, blowouts can lead to serious accidents on the road. If you or a loved one was hurt because of a tire blowout, the St. Louis truck accident lawyer at The Law Offices of Justin L. Mason, LLC can help.

Putting Profits before Safety
Tires for these trucks can be expensive, and with as many miles as these trucks drive, the need to replace those tires can cost companies a lot of money. As a result, they sometimes choose not to do so. Retreading is one example of cutting costs by not replacing old, worn tires.
Other reasons for tire blowouts could include:
- Overinflation
- Overloading the truck
- Failure to inspect by the driver
