Columbus Commercial Vehicle Collision Lawyer
Large 18-wheeler tractor-trailers are not the only commercial vehicles subject to federal and state regulations on Ohio roads and highways. Any commercial truck, including UPS vans, food service step-vans and courier trucks, is subject to obeying provisions of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act (FMCSA). If a driver or commercial truck company violates the regulations, causing an accident, the company is subject to liability for the full extent of money damages owed to injury victims.
