Pinellas County Lawyers: Determining the Cause of a Truck Accident

St. Petersburg · Tampa · Clearwater

Don't Fight the Trucking Company on Your Own

Like all drivers, commercial truck drivers must follow the rules of the road. However, semi truck drivers and trucking companies must follow additional regulations designed to decrease the possibility of serious accidents between commercial trucks and passenger cars.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is responsible for special regulations governing truck drivers and trucking companies. When investigating the causes of a major trucking accident, it is important to review whether the driver and trucking company complied with all relevant safety regulations. Evidence that the driver or trucking company violated federal safety rules helps build a strong case for the accident victim to get all necessary compensation.

At Reeder & Nussbaum, P.A., we represent victims of trucking accidents in St. Petersburg, Tampa, and surrounding areas of Clearwater and Pinellas County. Our attorneys are experienced personal injury lawyers who energetically pursue justice and fair compensation for injury victims and the families of fatal accident victims.

During our investigation, we search for evidence of any negligence, carelessness or recklessness on the part of any person or company associated with the specific truck. Common causes of truck accidents that we search for include:

  • Insufficient driver training and education
  • Driver fatigue
  • Distracted driving
  • Aggressive and/or negligent driving, including excessive speed and passing
  • Unrealistic schedules and deadlines that encourage reckless driving
  • Improper loading and unsecured loads
  • Drug or alcohol use
  • Faulty equipment caused by lack of proper maintenance

Only by understanding all the causes of the truck accident do we have the best chance at securing full compensation for all the necessary treatment after a trucking accident.
