Excessive Speeding

Speeding is a leading cause of truck accidents in the United States. A speeding truck has so much momentum that the resulting accident is very likely to result in severe injury or death. In the face of this stark reality, truck drivers continue to exceed the speed limit and trucking companies turn a blind eye. Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows traffic fatalities are way up, with over 100 more than this year than all of 2020. Experts say, there are more trucks on the road than ever, which has led to a hiring surge to keep up with a post-pandemic demand for goods.

When intrastate, interstate or long-haul trucking companies ignore log book evidence, police reports or truck driver history of speeding, they may bear corporate responsibility to pay for the injuries, property damage or wrongful deaths that result when speeding trucks have the run of the road.

Based on years of experience in a large number of high-profile cases nationwide, our Texas Truck Wreck Lawyers are accomplished at getting to the root of this question. It is true that speeding truck drivers should bear responsibility for their actions, but what about the trucking company's responsibility to enforce the rules and regulations?
