Birmingham Truck Accident Attorney: Trucking Companies Overworking Drivers

Alabama Lawyer Investigates All Facets of Semi-Truck Wrecks

Rob Rosenthal:

Do trucking companies push their drivers to unsafe limits for hours and miles? We ask Alabama lawyer Sara Williams for this AskTheLawyers™ Quick Question.

Sara Williams:

Unsafe companies push their drivers to drive unsafe hours and miles, and I think that is the crux, oftentimes, of these trucking cases. Going back, it's not just about the wreck. It's going back; how did we get here? Did we get here because we have a corporation or we have a company that is pushing the limits? And I've had depositions where I've had truck drivers admit to me that they have been forced into just impossible situations that then caused them to be in a physical state that made them lose control of their vehicle and cause serious injuries.
