Truck Accident FAQs: Who Pays, What Evidence Matters
How is a truck case different from a car case?
There are federal rules, corporate defendants, and more evidence to secure. We often send early preservation letters and investigate multiple parties from the start.
What is black box data?
The truck’s ECM records speed, braking, throttle, and more. We move quickly to preserve it before it’s overwritten and compare it with driver logs, GPS, and dashcam footage.
What violations show up most?
Hours‑of‑service overages, skipped maintenance, equipment defects, and overweight or unsecured loads are common. Cell‑phone use and inadequate training can also factor into fault.
Who pays my damages?
Potentially the driver, the carrier, a shipper/loader, or a maintenance contractor—sometimes more than one. We identify coverage and responsibilities for each.
How long will my case take?
Timing depends on medical recovery, data collection, and insurer posture. Early evidence preservation and a clear demand package help move negotiations forward.
