Question:
How is a commercial truck accident claim different from an auto accident?
Answer:
The biggest differences between a truck accident and a car accident are, one, very often when you’re involved in a truck accident, the injuries are much more devastating and much more severe due to the fact that you’re dealing with a vehicle that’s much heavier than say another motor vehicle. The other thing difference is that when you get involved with a truck accident, very often the insurance is a little bit different.
If you’re dealing with somebody who was driving a car, you’re sometimes dealing with somebody who has very low limits. You could be very seriously injured, but you’re not going to be able to get an adequate recovery if the other person does not have adequate insurance. With a trucking company or a truck accident, very often insurance is much greater than with simple automobiles and cars.
Those are the two biggest differences— the level of insurance and much more severe injuries than you see in a car accident.
