The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations

Accidents involving commercial motor vehicles affect hundreds of thousands of people each year in the United States.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is responsible for creating and enforcing the safety rules and regulations—called the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations—that govern everything from the type of training that commercial drivers are required to have to the number of hours they’re allowed to drive before having to take a break or go off-duty.

The regulations are intended to make the roadways safer and reduce the number of crashes by ensuring that commercial drivers are properly trained, well-rested, and driving vehicles that are properly maintained.

Damages Available in a Commercial Truck or Motor Vehicle Accident

Despite the safety regulations, commercial vehicle drivers commonly violate the rules and, as a result, place the lives of other drivers and passengers on the road at risk.

When a commercial truck driver causes an accident, the driver and their company will often be liable for substantial damages, including

  • past and future medical expenses
  • past and future lost wages
  • past and future pain and suffering
  • past and future mental anguish
  • past and future physical impairment
  • past and future physical disfigurement
  • and punitive damages
