Trucking accidents can be some of the worst crashes on the U.S. highway system, often resulting in seriously injured victims, and even fatalities in far too many instances. Experienced trucking accident attorneys often inspect the involved vehicles as soon as possible, to find evidence that will help establish negligence on the part of the operators.

The official accident report can also provide evidence that could be very helpful in establishing negligence, but one of the most important aspects of the evidence compilation is the deposition of the truck driver. During the deposition a skilled court reporter will likely record verbatim as the attorney asks standard questions to establish the age, background, and experience of the driver, as well as the below three vital questions that may shed more light on the driver’s negligence.
