Which parties can potentially be held liable?

  • Truck Driver

    The driver can be held liable if the accident was caused by their negligence, such as speeding, driving under the influence, fatigue, or violating traffic laws.

  • Trucking Company

    Often, the company employing the driver can be held liable, especially if the accident was a result of inadequate driver training, failure to conduct proper background checks, or forcing drivers to adhere to unrealistic schedules that lead to fatigue.

  • Owner of the Truck

    If the truck is owned by a different entity than the trucking company, that owner can be liable for failures in maintenance or inspection that contributed to the accident.

  • Cargo Loaders

    The parties responsible for loading the truck's cargo can be liable if improper loading (like overloading or uneven loading) was a factor in the accident.

  • Truck Manufacturer or Parts Manufacturers

    If a defect in the truck or one of its components (like brakes or tires) led to the accident, the manufacturer of the truck or the defective part can be held liable.

  • Maintenance Companies

    If poor maintenance or failure to address known issues contributed to the accident, the company responsible for maintaining the truck could be liable.

  • Other Negligent Drivers

    In some cases, the actions of other drivers on the road can contribute to or cause a trucking accident.

  • Government Entities

    If road conditions or poorly designed or maintained roads were a factor, local or state governments responsible for road design and maintenance might be liable.
