Collisions involving commercial trucks are not like typical car accidents. When an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer collides with a passenger vehicle, the injuries are often catastrophic.

At The Law Offices of Ron Sholes, P.A., we prepare every truck accident case as if it’s going to trial — because trucking companies begin building their defense immediately.

What to Do After a
Truck Accident

If you’ve been involved in a crash:

Common Causes of Truck Accidents
in Florida

Driver Fatigue

Federal hours-of-service rules limit driving time, but violations still happen.

Distracted Driving

GPS systems, dispatch communications, and mobile devices can all contribute.

Improper Loading

Unbalanced or unsecured cargo can cause rollovers or jackknife accidents.

Speeding or Aggressive Driving

Large trucks require greater stopping distances.

Why Truck Accident Cases Are More Complex

Truck accident claims are far more complex than typical car crashes because multiple parties may be responsible for the collision. Liability can extend beyond the truck driver to include the trucking company, cargo loading company, maintenance contractors, or even vehicle and parts manufacturers. Each of these entities may have its own legal team and insurance carrier working quickly to limit financial exposure and shift blame.

That’s why early legal action is critical. We move immediately to preserve black box (electronic logging device) data, secure driver logs and safety records, review maintenance and inspection reports, and investigate potential violations of federal trucking regulations. In commercial truck accident cases, acting quickly can make the difference between a strong claim and lost evidence.
