Truck Crashes Are Different

How Ohio Truck Accident Injury Cases Are Different than Other Accidents

1/8

Serious Injuries & Losses

Large commercial vehicle accidents frequently result in debilitating injuries or wrongful death. The effects of this can be devastating and include staggering medical bills, lost wages, diminished capacity, physical pain, and tremendous grief.

2/8

Higher Insurance Policies

Commercial trucks have higher minimum insurance requirements than passenger vehicles because of the accident risk. These policies hold the potential for higher settlements and awards for truck accident victims, so companies try to limit liability and protect their profits.

3/8

Truck Data Recorders

Most commercial semi-trucks have event data recorders (EDRs) like an airplane’s “black box” that measure pre-crash data, like speed, braking, engine usage, and other factors if an event is triggered. It is a valuable piece of evidence, but accessing the data is difficult without legal help.

4/8

Large Truck Companies Get Involved

Commercial carriers routinely get to the scene of truck crashes fast and use their considerable resources to their benefit. This is done to reduce allegations of negligence and diminish the harm inflicted. Victims usually need their own investigations and independent experts to prove fault and liability.

5/8

Federal Truck Regulations May Apply

Truck drivers and their employers must follow regulations set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regarding hours driven, cargo weight, and safety. When violations occur, it could demonstrate negligence.

6/8

Liability in Truck Accidents

Multiple parties can be at-fault for truck crashes and liable for your damages. For example, truck drivers will sometimes engage in behaviors that put others at risk, but working conditions and unsafe practices in the trucking industry can also cause crashes. The trucking company foregoing inspections can lead to brake failure, unreasonable deadlines can incite speeding, and quotas can result in driving longer than is safe.

7/8

There's A Statute of Limitations

Like other personal injury claims, you have limited time to pursue compensation for a truck accident. The statute of limitations for filing a truck accident lawsuit in Ohio is generally two years from the accident. While there are some exceptions, you could be barred from filing altogether if you wait too long.

8/8

Beware Low Ball Settlements

The truck industry and their insurance companies are interested in their profitability, not the well-being of truck accident injury victims. They notoriously offer less than what claims are worth, so things are settled fast and for as little as possible. A victim’s best chance at securing fair and full compensation is by working with an experienced truck accident lawyer.
