FMCSA Violations

Indiana Truck Accident Injury Attorneys

Indianapolis Semi Truck Accident Lawyers

Since 1970, Tabor Law Firm has been helping clients recover from injuries sustained in Indiana truck accidents. Over the years, we have watched closely as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) have tried to keep up with commercial trucks that are rapidly becoming too big, too fast, and too powerful. Many of our Indiana roads and highways simply aren't built to handle the increased demand and speeds of the trucks that use them.

Over nine billion tons of consumer and business product move by over-the-road commercial truck every year in America. The truck industry is very aware of the financial rewards that are at stake for promising the fastest delivery. Unfortunately, nearly 300 people are killed in truck accidents on Indiana highways every year, including many because of truck company negligence and truck drivers who routinely ignore Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations in order to chase a quicker dollar.

Contact us to schedule a free consultation about your injuries or wrongful death claim. We will investigate your accident to discover whether it was the result of FMCSR violations such as

• Failure to follow maintenance regulations
• Log book violations
• Truck driver fatigue
• Freight loading violations
• Negligent hiring and supervision
• Expired commercial truck license
• Improper emergency stops
• Insufficient meals and rests

Why do you need a lawyer?

FMCSA safety regulations are difficult to understand and interpret. If you have been injured in a truck accident, you may be offered a quick settlement by the insurance company. Don't accept any offer until you have talked with a personal injury attorney who knows how to thoroughly investigate to determine whether the accident happened because of FMCSR violations. Contact our offices to schedule a free consultation to discuss your accident. We know the current FMCSA regulations, and we know how the law currently interprets liability for your injuries when violations have occurred. You deserve to have an experienced, knowledgeable truck accident trial lawyer on your side, and we can help.
