This area of law deals with obtaining compensation for injuries caused by the negligence and/or carelessness of truck drivers and uninsured motorists. There are many laws which govern the responsibilities of truck drivers in the State of California. Violations of these laws can also be used to establish liability against the truck driver and the company he or she works for. An injured person may recover as damages the costs of his or her medical care and treatment, past and future lost wages and pain and suffering.

Truck accidents can cause serious injuries for a number of reasons. First and foremost, the sheer size of the truck can cause a deadly impact - some commercial vehicles can weigh more than 10,000 pounds. The speed of trucks continues to increase, with rising speed limits and a stronger emphasis by commercial companies on expediency. These two factors converge to make trucking collisions extremely dangerous: In 2003 alone, nearly 560,000 large trucks were involved in traffic accidents; in which 5,100 people were killed and another 145,000 were injured.
