The Trucking Company


Trucking companies can most certainly hold fault when truck collisions occur. There are a great number of federal regulations regarding how these companies must operate; breaking one of these regulations is both illegal and incredibly dangerous. They must ensure their fleet is in safe working condition, that their drivers meet a certain standard and more. A truck accident can occur when the trucking company breaks a rule such as forcing drivers to stay on the road longer than required.


The Truck Manufacturer

The company that makes the truck itself may be held responsible if a truck accident is caused by a design flaw or manufacturing error that could or should have been prevented.

The Loading Company

The trucking industry has specific regulations for how each truck and each item must be loaded. Different materials are required to be secured differently, and all trucks have a specific weight limit. If a truck is improperly loaded by the loading company, or if the truck surpasses a given weight limit, the company could be held responsible if an accident occurs.

Another Driver

Sometimes, truck collisions occur because of another driver on the road. For instance, another driver could be driving recklessly, leading to a collision with a truck, which then leads to a collision with your car. In this case, the other driver would likely be responsible for the accident.

An Accident Report (or Incident Report) is an official record that provides a detailed and accurate account of an event, such as an accident, injury, or near miss, that occurred in a specific location, usually within an organization or workplace. They are created on-site by an authority figure such as a police officer or a hospital staff member. 1 Above individual offices or hospitals, agencies like the National Transportation Safety Board produce and file accident reports. Most reports focus on a single accident. These reports contain information such as details of the specified accident, analysis of factual data, conclusions and probable cause of the accident, and in some cases, related safety recommendations. Accident reports often serve as evidence in legal disputes. They can establish facts and assist in determining liability in negligence cases or assessing claims and determining compensation for damages or injuries in insurance claims. Police report...

Will I Need to File a Truck Accident Lawsuit?   Every time we get in our car, whether we're going to work, to pick up the kids, to dinner, or anything in between, we expect to arrive safely at our destination. Most of the time, this is exactly what happens. But the devastating truth is that car accidents are a very real risk any time you're on the road. While all accidents are terrifying, accidents involving trucks and other commercial motor vehicles are particularly dangerous. A truck accident is likely to cause far more damage and more serious injuries than most other kinds of motor vehicle accidents, given the size and weight of something like a semi-truck. It's not uncommon for victims to endure something as serious as a traumatic brain injury. Accidents involving large trucks can be life-changing events for all those involved, and in most cases, the inhabitants of passenger vehicles are the ones who bear the brunt of the damage. If you or a loved one has experienced ...
