Reckless Truck Driving in Bad Conditions
There is a great deal of pressure in the trucking industry to drive in bad weather. Since the profit margin is directly tied to moving items across great distances as efficiently as possible, and each driver's compensation rate is usually based on miles traveled, no one in the industry wants to be stalled by bad weather. But when a driver continues to drive fast in heavy rain or other dangerous weather conditions, it is a reckless choice that puts everyone in danger.
"If a driver is in too much of a hurry, or the trucking company is putting too much pressure on its drivers to keep hauling fast even when the weather is unfavorable, it puts everyone in danger. You should not have to shoulder the burden of the resulting injuries alone. We will take immediate action to gather the evidence we need to fight for your compensation after a trucking accident due to inclement weather." — Attorney Chris Hammons
