    This is a good blog post by top lawyers that explains the extra set of skills needed to litigate a personal injury case. The laws of physics, combined with an amalgam of state and federal laws and regulations makes for a pretty complicated lawsuit.

    I think for all parties involved (and I’m sure you would agree), preventing truck accidents still remains the best approach.
