Federal and State Regulations for Semis
There are both federal and state regulations that apply to all truck drivers. These regulations are in place to prevent trucking accidents, which are often the result of negligent actions such as driver fatigue and poorly maintained equipment. All drivers are required to keep a trucking log, which keeps track of their hours on the road. State laws vary, but they are in place to protect against similar mistakes.
Wrongful Death Trucking Accidents
