Truck Accident Injury Claims in New Jersey

Victims injured in truck wrecks on NJ roads have the legal right to pursue compensation from all liable parties. To succeed in getting maximum monetary damages for your case, you need to identify liable parties, establish their negligence, and approach the claim with a professional level of knowledge of the challenges specific to truck accident cases.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents in NJ

Often, negligence of some kind is behind truck accidents. Among the causes our trucking accident attorneys in NJ most commonly encounter are:

  • Distracted driving, including texting and driving and eating while driving
  • Drunk driving
  • Driver fatigue
  • Speeding
  • Following traffic too closely
  • Failing to obey traffic signs, signals, and safety laws
  • Failing to use signals
  • Violations of federal regulations, including Hours of Service regulations, drug and alcohol testing requirements, and vehicle upkeep requirements
  • Poor vehicle maintenance
  • Vehicle malfunction or malfunction of vehicle components
  • Improper loading

Truck drivers and trucking companies aren’t always the negligent parties. In multi-vehicle collisions, especially, an injured party may have a claim against another motorist in addition to a truck driver and trucking company.

Negligence behind the wheel often contributes to truck accidents, but in some instances, such as those involving defective auto parts and poor maintenance, the negligent conduct occurs well before the collision happens.

How Truck Accidents Are Different From Car Accidents

Auto accidents involving commercial trucks often lead to more complex legal issues than those involving only cars due to factors such as:

  • Commercial auto insurance policies, which not only include more coverage than the average private policy but also constitute exceptions to New Jersey’s limitation on lawsuit insurance option
  • Federal regulations of truck maintenance, truck size and weight limits, electronic logging, driver qualifications, and hours of service limits, with which any lack of compliance can be used to establish liability
  • Injury severity, which is often (although not always) more extensive in collisions involving commercial trucks due to their large size and the strong force of impact

Knowledgeable trucking accident attorneys in NJ can address all of these complicating factors and take advantage of the opportunities that exist alongside these potential challenges to secure the settlement you deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions About New Jersey Truck Accident Injury Claims

  • One factor that makes truck accidents complicated is the likelihood that multiple defendants could share liability for your damages. Potential defendants in your case could include a combination of the following parties:

    • The truck driver
    • The trucking company
    • The owner of the truck or tractor
    • The owner of any trailers
    • Any company responsible for the repair and maintenance of the truck
    • A company that owns or is responsible for loading cargo onto the truck
    • The manufacturer of a defective truck or defective auto parts
    • Another motorist, manufacturer, property owner, or entity responsible for road maintenance

    Determining who you can sue in a truck accident injury claim requires, at minimum, a thorough analysis of the known facts and potentially a more extensive investigation. Your ability to recover full compensation depends on identifying every potentially liable party involved in your case and then developing a strong case, backed by evidence, against each defendant. Our trucking accident attorneys in NJ can ensure that your claim reflects the negligence and liability of all accountable parties.
