Semi-tractor Trailers are all over the interstates and highways of our country. They command much of the road and can be very intimidating to a regular driver. Many of the Semi-truck drivers are excellent. However, there are also those drivers that are not following the law and are causing accidents. Some of these accidents are horrific and can cause the death of other drivers. Most of the time the semi-truck driver is not injured in the trucking accident. We are experience at litigating these cases and determining if the truck driver has followed all state and federal regulations related to interstate transportation.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration provides the regulations and statutory provisions for truck drivers. (http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov)

• Lack of sleep
• Improper maintenance of tractor trailer (tires, brakes, etc.)
• Driving under influence of Drugs or Alcohol
