Negligent Maintenance Can Come in a Variety of Forms
Commercial trucking accidents can occur due to a number of reasons ranging from negligent operation or improper training to negligent maintenance. Maintenance concerns often revolve around the following mechanical aspects:
- Tire pressure
- Defective brakes
- Defective lighting equipment
- Deficient reflectors
Negligent use of the truck itself may also lead to catastrophic accidents. Examples of negligent use include overloaded or overweight trucks, or poorly tied down loads.
Pursuing Compensation From All Liable Parties
Liability in negligent maintenance cases can be somewhat complex. Often, you can have a claim against a truck driver for not having his truck serviced on time. You may also be able to bring a claim against the trucking company itself, the owner of the truck and the owner of the trailer, as well as the company in charge of the latest maintenance.
Our skilled truck accident lawyers have years of experience handling claims such as these. We understand the applicable laws and regulations regarding commercial truck accidents, and we know how to apply these laws to seek maximum compensation for injured parties.
