How is a truck accident lawsuit different from a regular car accident case?

Truck accident cases are often far more complex than standard car accident claims. While a typical car crash may involve just two drivers and their insurance companies, a commercial truck accident can involve multiple parties, including the truck driver, trucking company, maintenance contractors, cargo loaders, and vehicle manufacturers.

Federal regulations also play a major role. Trucking companies and drivers must follow strict safety rules set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), including hours-of-service requirements, vehicle inspections, driver qualifications, and maintenance standards. Violations of these regulations can become critical evidence in a lawsuit.

At Marko Law, we often investigate trucking company safety records, driver logs, inspection histories, and FMCSA data to uncover the full story behind a crash. Information available through the FMCSA's SAFER and Safety Measurement System can provide valuable insight into a carrier's safety history.
