Usually, these types of collisions involve traumatic injuries because, as one of our experts put it, such a heavy vehicle is like a locomotive coming down the freeway. These over-the-road carriers are governed by numerous federal regulations which include, but are not limited to, driver rest periods, specific driver logs, and mandated insurance coverage. When you or someone you know is involved in an accident involving an eighteen-wheel rig in Alabama, it is important to employ an attorney familiar with these Alabama truck regulations so the case will be pursued properly.
