# Commercial Truck Crashes  
across Utah. 

Commercial-truck crashes are categorically different from passenger-vehicle wrecks. Federal regulations apply, multiple defendants are usually responsible, and the evidence has to be locked down within days.

What this case really involves 

## What we look at in a commercial truck crashes case.

FMCSA regulations govern hours-of-service, drug-and-alcohol testing, vehicle maintenance, and driver qualification. We pull the driver qualification file, hours-of-service logs, post-crash drug/alcohol test results, and vehicle maintenance records on every commercial-vehicle case.

We send spoliation letters to the carrier within 48 hours. ELD (electronic logging device) data, dash-cam footage, and engine control module downloads can be lost otherwise.

Defendants typically include the driver, the motor carrier, the trailer owner, and sometimes the broker or shipper. We map all of them.

Insurance issues we anticipate

-   — Mandatory FMCSA $750k–$5M+ liability policies on interstate carriers 
-   — MCS-90 endorsement coverage 
-   — Excess and umbrella layers

FAQ

-   How fast do I need to act?
    
    Within days. ELD data and dash-cam footage are routinely overwritten. We send spoliation letters immediately.
    
-   Can I sue the trucking company too?
    
    Almost always — and usually we should. Carrier liability is broader than driver liability.
