Truck Accidents in California
Studies reveal that about 500,000 truck accidents occur annually in the United States. In an attempt to decrease the number of accidents, the federal government requires truck companies to enforce specific regulations on their employees, such as limiting shift hours and logging everything pertaining to the truck during each shift. While these regulations have had some success, accidents where truck drivers and companies are found liable still occur. For those who have been injured in a truck accident, it’s imperative to seek a California personal injury lawyer to help file a personal injury lawsuit.
