Who Can Be Held Liable for a Truck Accident?
Determining liability in a truck accident can be complex, as multiple parties may be responsible. Here are some potential parties who could be held liable for a truck accident in New Hampshire:
- Truck driver: If the driver of the truck was negligent or engaged in reckless behavior that caused the accident, they may be held liable.
- Trucking company: The trucking company that owns the truck and employs the driver may be held liable if they were negligent in their hiring practices, failed to properly train the driver, or failed to properly maintain the vehicle.
- Owner of the truck: If the truck is owned by a different entity than the trucking company, the owner may be held liable if they were negligent in maintaining the vehicle or failed to address any known defects.
- Cargo loaders: If the accident was caused by improper loading of the cargo, the company or individuals responsible for loading the cargo may be held liable.
- Maintenance companies: If the accident was caused by a mechanical failure, the company responsible for maintaining the vehicle may be held liable if they were negligent in their maintenance or repairs.
- Government entities: In some cases, government entities responsible for maintaining the roadways or regulating trucking may be held liable if their negligence contributed to the accident.
Determining liability in a truck accident can be complex, and it often requires a thorough investigation. If you've been involved in a truck accident, it's important to consult with an experienced New Hampshire truck accident lawyer who can help you identify the parties responsible and pursue compensation for your injuries and damages.
