Most often it results in a fairly serious type injury simply because trucks are large and drive quickly, and usually there is some sort of serious injury involved. There are many rules, including how many hours, for example, a driver can drive consecutively, how many hours they need to sleep, what type of food they eat, what the weight distribution is on the truck. There are countless examples of what those special requirements are. Typically, we will utilize experts that specialize in trucking cases in those types of instances, and so there are many, many important rules and regulations that have to be addressed in order for a person who is injured by their negligence of a truck driver or trucking company to be adequately compensated.
