Truck accidents in California are far more frequent than they should be. Many truck drivers in California are under substantial pressure to get their goods to their destinations on time. This time pressure may lead some truckers to engage in such conduct as violating the hours of service rules, fudging their logbooks and engaging in negligent driving behaviors. In addition to truck drivers and trucking carriers, brokers and shippers may also be liable for some truck accidents. Shippers and brokers may try to find the cheapest trucking companies that are available to get their goods to their destinations on time. They may choose companies that have records of violations in order to do so. Truck accident victims may benefit by exploring potential shipper and broker liability in their cases in order to have more potential recovery sources for their losses.
