When Truck Drivers Fail to Follow the Rules of the Road
Truck drivers have difficult and challenging jobs. Long hours operating a large 18-wheeler can take its toll. However, they still must adhere to regulations governing their industry. Those rules dictate the amount of time they are allowed to be driving on the road and the number of breaks that should be taking. Falling short of those laws can have catastrophic consequences. Driver fatigue is the number one cause of truck/car crashes and fatalities.
Partnering with Experts to Build Your Truck Accident Claim
At Bulman Law Associates, we know that while our experience is vast in this specific area of personal injury law, we need the help of industry experts.
