Trucking companies have to follow numerous rules and regulations to ensure that their vehicles are safe and that their drivers have proper training. Additionally, truck drivers must follow the rules of the road and obey restrictions on the number of hours they can drive at a time. When these parties fail to uphold these obligations, serious collisions can occur. According to MCMIS, 45,900 large trucks were involved in injury crashes in 2020.

If you were injured in a truck accident, you may be entitled to financial compensation. The driver, as well as his or her employer and any maintenance companies or manufacturers, may be held liable for your injuries. Additionally, if multiple drivers share fault, they may all share in the liability.

By filing a truck accident claim, you could recover compensation to help pay for the following:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages and future earnings
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Disability accommodations
  • Rehabilitation and physical therapy

What to Do If You Were Involved in a Florida Truck Accident
