The roadways in New Jersey and elsewhere can be a dangerous place. While drivers are expected to follow the rules of the road, some fail to do so. Whether it is due to distractions, recklessness, intoxication or another negligent act, other motorists, cyclists and pedestrians are put at risk. Following a fatal crash, an investigation could help reveal the cause, allowing family members to get answers to the questions they might have and understand what legal recourse is available.
Truck accidents and hours of service violations
With the holidays just around the corner, many residents of New Jersey and elsewhere are awaiting the delivery of their gifts so they can wrap them in time for the upcoming celebrations. In order to meet the high demands of consumers this time of year, truck companies and commercial trucks are essential. These large vehicles help with the shipment of goods and the transportation and delivery of packages; however, the abundance of these vehicles on the roadways poses great risks for a truck accident.
