Professional Drivers Are Held to a Higher Standard:
Legal contributor Attorney Brian Mickelsen, an experienced truck accident lawyer, represents victims injured or killed in semi-truck accidents. Below, Attorney Mickelsen shared his insight into the legal options available to victims injured in commercial truck accidents.
“Commercial vehicles, like semi-trucks, are inherently dangerous. This is why states require a special license to drive them. It’s called a CDL license. Commercial vehicle drivers are subject to different legal regulations and standards while operating their vehicles.”
When someone is injured or killed due to the negligence of a truck driver, it is critically important to preserve all relevant evidence. For example, preserve dash cam video, witness statements, photographs, tire marks, and electronic and black box data.
