Cleveland Trucker DWI Attorney
Truck drivers are under the strictest of government regulations concerning the use of drugs and alcohol in their professional lives. Under provisions of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act (FMCSA), a truck driver may not drive a commercial vehicle within four hours of consuming any alcoholic beverage or certain prescribed medications.
Truck Driver DUI Is a Case of Clear Liability for Damages
In a typical year in Ohio, more than 2,500 people are injured or killed in accidents involving large commercial trucks; too many because the truck driver was impaired by alcohol or drugs while driving. If you or a loved one was involved in a truck crash caused by a drunk truck driver on a road in Ohio, talk to an experienced Ohio truck accident litigation attorney at Seaman Garson LLC in Cleveland.
