Cherry Hill Drunk Truck Driver Accident Attorneys
Nobody should get behind the wheel while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. While intoxicated driving is always dangerous, when the driver is behind the wheel of a semi truck, the potential for a tragic motor vehicle accident is especially high. When these accidents happen, the victim has the right to seek compensation.
At the Ferrara Law Firm, LLC, our lawyers can help you get the compensation to which you are entitled. We have been standing up for the rights of intoxicated driving accident victims throughout New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania since 1972. Our diligent representation has already resulted in millions of dollars in compensation for victims.
Drunk Driving and Truck Accidents
Drunk driving is against the law. There is absolutely no time when it is appropriate for a semi-truck driver to get behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol. In fact, truck companies should screen potential employees and filter out any candidates with a DUI/DWI on their records. Unfortunately this type of screening does not always take place. Our investigation often reveals that a truck driver had a history of these offenses — information that we will use to strengthen our case.
Driving Under the Influence of Drugs
Some truck drivers go to great lengths to stay on the road for as many hours in a row as possible. This is how they make money, moving loads from Point A to Point B. Unfortunately, some of the steps they take are illegal, such as using drugs to keep them awake. It is also possible for truck drivers to become addicted to painkillers and other drugs that may hinder their ability to drive safely, ultimately resulting in an accident. We will find out if substance abuse played a role in a truck driving accident.
