Among all types of motor vehicles, car accidents, and trucking accident cases on Florida roads, semi-truck accidents cause the most physical and financial damage. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration reported an increase of 6.8% in fatal crashes involving large trucks from 2016 to 2017. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), fatalities in large truck crashes have increased by 20% in the past 10 years.

How Do I Know Who Was At-Fault?
Fault is determined by the evidence collected during the investigation. We look to many things to determine fault in the case: we look to the police report, we look to witness statements, we look to the property damage to the vehicles, skid marks, layout of the cars, etc. Sometimes we even have to refer to accident re-constructionists to do a professional examination of the all the evidence to do a recommendation for us, but that does not happen in very many cases.

The at-fault party’s insurance company could ask you to give them a recorded statement. You do not have to give them a recorded statement. However, if your own insurance company asks you for a recorded statement please seek advice from your attorney so that they can assist you in giving that statement. But yes you do have to comply and you do have to give your insurance company a recorded statement.

Who Will Pay for the Damage to My Vehicle in an Accident?
It depends on who was at fault for the accident. If you were at fault, your insurance company will pay for the damage to the vehicle. If you were not at fault, the at-fault driver’s or owner’s insurance policy will pay for the damage, and if they do not have enough coverage to cover the damage to your vehicle, your collision coverage (if purchased) would pay for the damage to your vehicle.
