Truck Collision Causes
Many truck crashes are caused by careless truck drivers themselves, however, there are various potential parties who may be responsible for these collisions. Just some of those parties are as follows:
- Truck drivers: Driving while intoxicated, fatigued, or otherwise disobeying the rules and regulations of the road are the most common causes of truck crashes.
- Truck company employees: Employees responsible for loading trucks and preparing them for their route may be held accountable if they do so improperly and cause the truck to become unstable.
- Truck company employers: Employers who hire unqualified or unlicensed truckers, or employers who fail to adhere to OSHA and other standards may also be held accountable for certain truck crashes.
- Truck mechanics: Truck mechanics who don’t adequately inspect/maintain trucks may be held accountable for shotty work that causes a truck crash.
Filing Your Claim
Our firm will help you gather and present evidence in an effort to prove that you were injured as a direct result of another party’s negligence. As long as we can satisfy the burden of proof in your injury claim, you should receive compensation to help you deal with the physical, financial, and emotional burdens you’ve incurred due to the crash. Ensure you file your personal injury claim within two years of the date the crash occurred, in accordance with the state’s statute of limitations.
