Trucking companies and truckers are highly regulated. There are restrictions for the hours that can be driven in a given day and over a 48 hour period. They are regulated in their maintenance and upkeep. They are regulated as to the weight that can be carried.

There is a question why and how this particular truck lost control. If you are involved in a trucking accident, be sure to contact a knowledgeable trucking accident attorney, like the Jurewitz Law Group, who can ask the detailed questions and find out whether the trucking company and truck driver complied with all regulations.
