Truck Driver Error
Holding Negligent Parties Accountable
Under state and federal law, commercial trucking companies are responsible for the proper hiring and training of their drivers. Unfortunately, trucking companies too often play a role in serious and fatal truck accidents by allowing impaired, inexperienced or fatigued drivers on the road, or by placing drivers with a history of poor driving habits behind the wheel of a semitruck carrying thousands of pounds of freight.
