In America, with its multitudes of large trucks on the roads 24 hours a day every day, it’s a statistical certainty that major truck accidents are going to occur frequently. And when a 20-ton semi-truck has an accident, significant damage is likely to occur, both to the truck in question and to whatever it hits, including buildings, signage, or other vehicles.
As a result, truck drivers and trucking companies are required by law in most states to carry truck accident insurance coverage, ensuring that the trucking company can pay for any damages incurred should a semi-truck accident lawsuit be filed against them as the result of an accident.
However, for whatever reason, some trucking companies and owner-operators fail to carry truck accident insurance – leaving you in the lurch in the event of a crash. This irresponsibility constitutes negligence on their part, and makes them liable to those injured as a result.
