New Haven Truck Driver Negligence Lawyers
Handling Truck Accident Cases Resulting from Driver Fatigue Since 1978
Often, vehicle accidents involving semi trucks, tractor trailers and commercial vehicles are caused by hard-to-detect circumstances. When the brakes worked properly, the load was well secured and traffic was light, the obvious question immediately arises; what caused this accident?
Often, truck accidents are caused by driver fatigue. Drivers push themselves for many reasons, the most common one being money. By skipping breaks and by ignoring federal laws governing road-time and sleep laws, trucks can complete driving jobs more quickly, which saves money. Truck companies also often stand to gain by faster deliveries and often tolerate, ignore and even encourage the breaking of break and sleep laws by drivers.
When truck accidents are caused by fatigued drivers, car, motorcycle and light truck drivers are usually the victims. If you or a loved one was injured in a truck accident in Connecticut, the Connecticut truck driver fatigue accident attorneys of Gillis Law Firm can provide experienced and results-driven legal help.
We have the skill and experience to investigate what can be highly challenging cases involving allegations that can be difficult to prove. We have a long record of success in subpoenaing log books, challenging their accuracy and building strong cases prior to both negotiations and trial.
