Our firm secured a significant confidential settlement against a trucking company whose driver violated Federal Motor Carrier Safety Rules by driving overtime and by failing to properly log his hours. While driving fatigued, the operator drove at high speeds, in a blinding rain, down a steep hill. He lost control of his truck and crossed over into our client’s lane, causing serious injury. The case was settled shortly before trial.
