Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Fargo
Truck accidents in Fargo, like anywhere else in the United States, can happen due to different reasons. One common cause of such accidents is driver fatigue, as truckers often face long hours on the road without sufficient rest.
Poor vehicle maintenance, such as faulty brakes or worn-out tires, can also contribute to serious accidents.
We’ve also seen cases where adverse weather conditions have made driving more hazardous, especially for large trucks that require more time to stop.
Lastly, distracted driving remains a major issue on our roads here in Fargo and throughout the state. Drivers using mobile devices, navigation systems, or other distractions while operating their vehicles has contributed to major accidents on our highways.
How Liability Plays Out After a Truck Accident
After a truck accident, determining liability can be complex and that’s because multiple parties might be responsible. Typically, liability may fall on any of the following parties:
- Truck driver
- Trucking company
- Manufacturer of the truck parts
- Government agencies
- Truck maintenance companies
What Damages Can I Claim?
It all depends on the specifics of our case. The first thing you need to know is that North Dakota is a no-fault insurance state. What this means is that you’ll first file a claim with your own insurance company before exploring other options.
That said, if your medical expenses amount to more than $2,500 or if you’ve suffered a permanent injury, state laws allow you to file a claim with the other party.
Suppose your case is valid. If so, you might be entitled to claim various damages. Among others, the damages you may be entitled to may include:
- Current and future medical expenses for any injuries sustained
- Lost wages if you're unable to work
- Lost earning potential
- Compensation for pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Funeral and burial costs if you lost a loved one in the accident
