Inattentive Truck Driving in Ohio

Truck drivers drive on the highway for hours on end. It is not surprising that they fall prey to monotony.

Who Is Financially Responsible for Inattentive Truck Driving?

Truck drivers are responsible for their poor driving choices. However, if their trucking companies ignored or contributed to their unsafe driving, the trucking companies may also be liable for your injuries.

Trucking companies must follow federal regulations and keep track of the time their truckers spend on the road. They should also set routes that are reasonable and do not contribute to inattentive or otherwise unsafe driving habits. If they do not prohibit cell phone use or the use of other electronics (such as on-board monitors) while driving, they may also be liable for your injuries.
