Who's to Blame When You Are Involved in a Trucking Accident?
Depending on the collision, the fault can fall to another driver or a company that owns the trucking service. Sometimes this type of accident can cause a chain collision. If one driver acts negligently and causes a truck driver to have an accident, this can cause more cars following to also wreck. In this situation, the at-fault driver would be responsible. However, in a case where it is just an 18-wheeler and a car involved in an accident (and the truck driver has been negligent), liability would fall to their employer.
