"So many accidents could be avoided if the drivers and the trucking companies would simply maintain their vehicles like they should. We will go up against the driver, the trucking company and the insurance company with the backing of our entire firm's resources to fight on your behalf." — Attorney Chris Hammons
At Laird, Hammons, Laird PLLC , our Oklahoma City poor vehicle maintenance attorneys have the experience, skill and attitude to fight for you. Most truck accident victims simply cannot absorb the costs of medical bills, pain and suffering and lost wages on their own; they need the financial award from a truck accident litigation victory just to move on and continue providing for their families. Our lawyers are sensitive to this fact, so we do everything possible to ensure that you are fully and fairly compensated.
Trucking Vehicle Maintenance Requirements
Because of the inherent dangers involved with trucking, the industry is aggressively regulated by state and federal governments and administrative agencies regarding:
- Maintenance: Trucking companies and drivers are required to make sure certain routine maintenance work is done on a regular basis regarding oil, brakes, tires, wipers, etc.
- Inspections: Routine inspections are also required on commercial trucking vehicles.
- Record-keeping: None of these other regulations would be enforceable without some kind of definitive record of compliance. Driver log book violations are one of the most significant indications that a vehicle was not properly maintained and up to code at the time of an accident.
We have a wealth of experience dealing with these maintenance, inspection and record-keeping requirements. We will investigate the vehicle's history, the driver's log book and other facts to find out whether the truck was properly maintained.
