Who May Be Liable in a Sanford Truck Accident Claim?
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) released a “Large Truck Crash Causation Study” that addressed some of the primary causes of trucking collisions in the country. In many cases, factors involving driver error were to blame. For instance, when a truck driver is engaged in distracted driving, aggressive driving, drowsy driving, or impaired driving, a deadly collision can occur. However, other parties can also be responsible for truck accidents in Sanford. For example, companies and their employees that load large trucks can load them improperly, failing to distribute weight evenly. Or, a trucking company can fail to have the truck inspected and properly maintained. In yet other cases still, a mechanic might fail to properly repair a mechanical issue in the truck’s brakes, or one of the truck’s tires might have a design or manufacturing defect.
As such, many different parties may be liable for a truck accident in Sanford, including but not limited to the following:
- Truck driver;
- Another driver on the road;
- Truck company;
- Owner of the truck;
- Mechanic;
- Company or its employees that loaded the truck;
- Designer of one of the truck’s parts; or
- Manufacturer of one of the truck’s parts.

Learning More About Filing Your Sanford Truck Accident Case
There are some important things to know about filing your claim. First, you must abide by the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is the time period a plaintiff has to file a lawsuit. Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, most truck accident lawsuits will have a four-year statute of limitations. This means that you must file your claim within four years from the date of the accident, or else you can lose your right to file a lawsuit altogether.
Four years might sound like a lot of time, but the quicker you reach out to a Sanford truck accident lawyer, the sooner we can gather important evidence in your case and begin seeking compensation for your losses.

“The Benenati law firm makes you believe that you are the single most important PERSON (not case) to them. Throughout the entire process, they maintained weekly contact with me, asking how I was doing or if I needed anything. I was provided with frequent updates as to how my case was progressing and was pleasantly surprised with the speed at which they were able to reach a substantial settlement. I've had the unfortunate experience of dealing with other well-known personal injury attorneys in Orlando who were unable to provide the level of expertise, care and service that Walter Benenati and his team can!”
