Recovering Damages for the Negligence of Truck Drivers. . . Truckers make driving errors. Sometimes they make errors in judgment in getting behind the wheel of their vehicles in the first place. When a truck driver makes a driving error with an 18-wheeler or large semi-truck, the results of a collision can be catastrophic. Truckers sometimes drive too many hours--ignoring contrary federal or state regulations. Driver fatigue has been the cause of many accidents on the interstates and other highways of Montana, and other roads that transverse the great western states of the U.S. Unfortunately for the driving public, some truck and commercial vehicle drivers get behind the wheel after imbibing alcoholic beverages or ingesting drugs into their systems. Drug and/or alcohol impairment by drivers of trucking rigs, commercial vans, or buses, has been a factor in many motor vehicle crashes. Overby Law Office, P.C. is experienced in establishing liability for such mistakes and helping clients to receive the compensation they deserve to cover medical and rehabilitation expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Recovering Damages for the Negligence of Trucking Companies. . . Sometimes a truck or commercial vehicle accident arises out of negligent supervision or policies of trucking companies, or other commercial firms that employ or supervise drivers. Perhaps the truck company allowed a defective truck to be put on the road. For example, a company might allow a Big-Rig on the highway with inadequate lighting on the trailer. Trucking companies sometimes hire drivers without properly screening them. Some trucking firms, or their insurance companies, do not make sure the drivers are properly trained in following safety procedures.
