Who is at Fault in My Truck Accident?
Truck accidents can be incredibly complex because multiple parties may be at fault. Investigating the causes of the accident and identifying liability requires extensive resources and the help of experts from various fields. Our Corpus Christi commercial trucking accident attorneys work with a team of accident reconstruction experts who can help us investigate and prove liability in a claim.
- In a truck accident case, one or more of the following parties can be at fault:
- Trucking companies can be held liable if they hire unqualified drivers, fail to train drivers, or encourage unsafe driving practices such as working long hours in order to make deadlines.
- Truck drivers may be at fault if they choose to speed, drive under the influence, or practice dangerous driving while on the road.
- Truck part manufacturers can be responsible if there was as defect in a truck part, such as malfunctioning brakes or another part failure that caused the accident.
- Cargo loader/shippers must abide by federal regulations that limit the weight of loaded cargo per truck. An improperly loaded or overweight truck can lose stability, scattering debris on the road, delay braking, and diminish maneuverability.
