How Long Do I Have to File a Truck Accident Claim?

It is important to talk to a New Castle truck accident attorney as soon as possible so we can make sure you meet this filing deadline. Once the deadline has passed, you may not be able to recover compensation for your losses.
What Causes Truck Accidents?
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration establishes rules that trucking companies and drivers must follow to reduce the number of truck accidents. Although these rules are in place, accidents still happen. Causes of truck accidents include:
- Blind spots: Trucks on the road have several blind spots, and drivers should check them and maneuver cautiously, especially when changing lanes or turning.
- Driver fatigue: Truck drivers are sometimes under pressure to get their deliveries done on time. Because of this, some violate federal hours of service regulations, which can cause fatigue and increase the risk of a wreck.
- Impaired drivers: Truck drivers being impaired by drugs or alcohol significantly increases the risk for accidents.
- Distracted driving: Cell phone use, eating, and other distractions can cause a driver to be less focused on the road, increasing the risk of an accident.
- Aggressive driving: Driving over the speed limit, following too closely, or participating in road rage can cause accidents.
- Faulty maintenance: Trucking companies and drivers may not keep up with vehicle maintenance, which can have devastating consequences.
