Valerie Fights for Those Who Have Suffered at the Hands of Irresponsible Truck Drivers

Did you know that one out of every eight accidents on the roadway involves a tractor-trailer. Truck drivers and the trucking companies that employ them must strictly and continuously comply with state and federal regulations governing the safe operation of tractor-trailers.

Many regulations have been put in place to ensure the safety of fellow drivers along roads and highways.

Truck Drivers Must Follow Regulations

Regulations governing safe drivers are designed to keep experienced, trained, and qualified drivers in the driver’s seat and protect against fatigued drivers who work beyond safe and permitted hours of service. Regulations also require safe vehicle maintenance and greater attention to protecting the public in adverse weather conditions or emergency conditions created by the driver or trucking company or loading company. Violations of these regulations by drivers and/or trucking companies have tragic and often fatal consequences.
