Provo Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Semi-trucks and other commercial vehicles supply the goods and services we need. At the same time, they can pose a substantial danger to other motorists on the road. When tuckers drive drunk or tired they create a life threatening situation.
Fortunately, federal law requires commercial vehicles that travel across State lines to carry insurance. The State of Utah also requires commercial vehicles that travel within its borders to carry liability insurance to compensate accident victims for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering should the truck driver negligently injure another motorist.
Under federal law, the minimum required insurance is $750,000. The commercial trucker must prove to the government that it has the insurance by filing a form MCS-90 with the government before being licensed to operate the truck. Many semi-trucks and other commercial vehicles have even more insurance than the minimum required.
