Sherman Truck Accident Lawyers

Truck drivers must adhere to very specific laws, rules and regulations when operating big rigs throughout the country. There are general federal regulations and also state-specific regulations of which truck drivers must be aware. Some of the areas that are federally regulated include the number of continuous hours a driver spends behind the wheel, how trucks are maintained, how goods are loaded and how much weight a truck may carry.



All of these regulations are in place to protect not only truck drivers, but motor vehicle drivers and passengers who share the road with these large commercial trucks. When regulations are ignored, truck drivers put themselves and others at risk of serious harm.  And when negligent drivers cause harm to others, they are legally responsible for the harm caused by their actions.



Even though a truck driver may be at fault for your accident, it doesn’t mean that getting the money you are legally entitled to will be easy. Trucking insurance companies are used to dealing with such matters and claims adjustors seek to protect their own best interest— not yours.
