You have been hit by a truck that weighs more than 70,000 pounds and you are severely injured. What do you do? Unlike in the typical car accident scenario, it is likely there will be good a commercial liability policy in place. But will it be enough? In a truck accident scenario, we are just not interested in just knowing who owned the truck and drove it. There are many other questions that have to be answered like, was it leased by and from another company? What state was it registered out of? (can have an impact on coverage issues) What state was the trailer registered out of? Who owned it? (there could be additional coverage that would apply). Why did the accident happen? Driver/operator error? Failure of the brakes on the cab? Failure of the brakes or mechanical problem on the trailer? Truck accidents pose a completely new set of questions and complications. It is important that if you or someone you know is injured in a truck accident, you seek the assitance of attorney who handles truck accident cases to properly document and build a foundation for your case early on.
