When fully loaded, a semi truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds. When truck drivers are negligent, the sheer size of their rigs can cause catastrophic damage, severe injuries, and even death.
Just as important as the facts of the crash is identifying the liable parties in a truck wreck. The liability can fall on various parties including the truck driver, the trucking company, the broker and shipper of the freight, the manufacturer of the truck, or even the business responsible for the truck’s maintenance. Further violations from these individuals or businesses can be additional grounds for a lawsuit.
