Let's Discuss Your Options
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration requires truck drivers to follow strict operating rules while driving commercial trucks. Quite often in these types of collisions, the driver and/or company fails to follow these rules.
Violations can lead to truck accidents caused by:
Driving too many hours in a day (violating the Hours of Service requirement)
Falling asleep while driving
Changing lanes, turning or passing without following safety precautions
Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Failing to properly maintain semitruck or tractor-trailer
Failing to load tractor-trailer properly leading to unsafe weight distribution
