Examples Of Truck Driver Negligence
Some negligence occurs due to drivers acting like knuckleheads, while other negligent actions are driven by the unrealistic expectations of trucking companies. Either way, negligence behind the wheel of a semitruck or tractor-trailer can result in serious injury and death for innocent motorists.
Some of the most common forms of truck driver negligence are:
- Fatigue and/or drowsiness
- Drunk driving
- Drug use
- Distracted driving (texting, using computers, etc.)
- Use of stimulants
- Driving more hours than permitted
- Using a phone without a hands-free device

You should not be left to bear the burden of a catastrophic injury on your own. I will be your strongest advocate in leveling the playing field and holding negligent parties accountable for their actions.
