Truck Driving Regulations and Liability

Truck drivers are required by law to adhere to a set of strict guidelines regarding their driving. They must:

• Properly maintain their vehicles
• Adhere to established loading and unloading procedures
• Maintain safe weights
• Keep accurate records of the hours they have logged behind the wheel

When an accident occurs because truck drivers fail to rigorously follow these rules, the trucking company and/or driver may be held legally responsible for the accident and any damages that result from it.

Why You Need a Truck Accident Attorney
