Question:
How is a commercial truck accident claim different from an auto accident?
Answer:
A few weeks ago, we received a phone call from a gentleman in Dallas who had been involved in a trucking accident. He wanted to know what the differences were between a trucking accident, involving a truck or 18-wheeler, and a car accident. There are big differences between the two.
First of all, trucks, 18-wheelers are governed by federal law and federal regulation, and these regulations set out safety rules to make the trucking industry safer. However, if a trucking company does not follow these safety rules, and that results in an accident in which someone gets hurt, then the trucking company and their insurance company are responsible for that injury or that accident.
The other difference is that trucking companies are required to carry insurance. There are states where that’s not required in a car, for example. Since trucking companies are required to have insurance, there is the ability to compensate you for your injuries and the harm that’s been done to you and your family.
