Who is responsible for my crash with a commercial tractor trailer truck?

A: The answer will depend on the facts surrounding the case. Did the truck driver run a red light? Did he speed or engage in distracted driving behaviors, like texting or talking on a cell phone?

If a truck driver performed any of those acts or did not take breaks as required by law, then he may be liable for your Atlanta auto accident and injuries.

Sometimes there are other parties that may be responsible for the truck accident in addition to the driver, including:

Trucking company
Cargo loader
Tire manufacturer, if the tires contributed to the wreck
Trailer owner

Establishing fault in an Atlanta truck accident can be difficult, which is why you would need the help of an experienced Atlanta accident attorney. Trucking companies tend to cover up evidence, and an attorney knows what to look for and what evidence to request.
