Examples of trucking company negligence include:
- Failing to ensure trucks are properly maintained
- Failing to ensure trucks are properly loaded and balanced
- Negligent hiring of truck drivers
- Failing to provide adequate training to drivers
- Failing to perform background checks
- Failing to discipline drivers for safety violations
