In this economy, trucking companies are under extreme pressure to cut costs and make deliveries in less time. When focusing on operating costs and profit, sometimes safety is overlooked. Likewise, pressure to meet delivery deadlines can cause speeding and other risky behaviors. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates maximum driving time and other safety requirements.

An experienced trucking lawyer will know how to investigate the claim and examine the vehicle’s maintenance records, the driver’s log and other items to see if the FMCSA regulations were violated. Trucking companies have excellent lawyers on their side to protect their rights. You need an experienced lawyer to fight for you.
