Trucks on the highway are frightening and intimidating. Tragically, the careless or negligent operation of these enormous motor vehicles all too often leads to horrific injury and loss of life. In 2003 in Florida, some 343 people lost their lives in trucking accidents. In addition to fatalities, truck crashes often produce traumatic injuries, including brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, first-degree and other severe burns, broken bones, and long-term emotional and psychological damages.

Truck collisions are frequently caused by driver fatigue, speeding, improper lane changing, defective equipment, or lack of proper training and experience. Truck accident cases require a prompt and thorough investigation of the crash, as well as careful examination of the insurance coverages that may be involved.

Trucks, their drivers, and the companies that operate them are subject to numerous state and federal statutes and agency regulations. There are specific insurance requirements, driver qualifications, record keeping requirements, and driver operating restrictions that are all unique to the trucking industry.
