Drivers, owners manufacturers, and mechanics are among the parties who are potentially liable in trucking accident cases. In some cases, more than one individual or entity is at fault.
Trucking accidents are one of the most devastating experiences individuals and their families can face. While the trucking industry is regulated by Federal Law, including the Department of Transportation, accidents unfortunately still occur. Between 2013 and 2017 alone, hundreds of thousands of truck crashes occurred in the U.S. according to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
The factors involved in assessing accidents involving semi-trailer trucks, eighteen wheelers, and other types of commercial trucks exceed those required in vehicle accidents involving cars, SUVs, pickups, motorcycles, and other non-commercial vehicles. The myriad of considerations includes:
Mechanical Failure
– Brakes
– Tires
– Axles
– Improper Connections
Operator Error
– Use Of Prescription, OTC, or Illegal Drugs
– Alcohol Use
– Texting Or Other Lack Of Focus Activity
– Moving Violations
– Railroad Violations
Loading & Shipping Errors
– Improper Weight Dispersement
– Chemical Spills
– Unsecured Loads
Other Factors
– Insufficient Passing Space Of Other Vehicles
– Animals Crossing Roads
– Road Debris
– Birds
– Falling Trees Or Items From Other Vehicles
Litigating such cases requires additional time as well, and in some instances, the insight and expertise of more than one expert witness.
Drivers, owners manufacturers, and mechanics are among the parties who are potentially liable in trucking accident cases.
In some cases, more than one individual or entity is at fault. Establishing liability can therefore be more difficult.
