Were You Injured by a Commercial Vehicle in Idaho?
Commercial vehicles come in all shapes and sizes. Most people think of the large semi tractor trailers, but any car or truck doing business on an Idaho road is licensed as a commercial vehicle. Whether it is a small courier service car or a large UPS truck, drivers and owners of commercial vehicles are subject to many of the same laws of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act (FMCSA) and state regulations. Owners and operators have specific responsibilities for operator training, maintenance requirements and emergency procedures.
If you have been injured in an accident caused by the operator of a commercial vehicle, talk to an experienced personal injury attorney at Carty Law, P.A.. We have more than 60 combined years of trial experience with an excellent record of obtaining maximum results for our clients. We know insurance law and how to investigate beneath the surface of a commercial vehicle accident to go after not only the driver, but all responsible parties.
Vicarious liability: Who else might share liability?
In a commercial vehicle negligence accident, there is often "vicarious" liability. Who loaded the truck? Who demanded a rapid delivery? Who trained the driver and who provided the maintenance. There are often additional insured parties who share liability for your injuries. We don't overlook them.
