Truck Industry Laws

Truck Industry Federal and State Laws

Due to the size, nature, frequent travel, and speeds of trucks, federal and state laws strictly regulate the trucking companies and driver performance to ensure safety for other drivers using the highway system. Many accidents can be traced to violations of these regulations on weight requirements, speed limitations, or restrictions on the number of hours a driver can be on the road without rest.
