When you have been injured in a truck accident, you may wonder what will happen once you file a claim. Will the truck driver get a slap on the wrist and you’ll both move on once you’ve settled with insurance? Will they be suspended? Will they get fired? What happens to the truck driver depends entirely on the circumstances surrounding the truck accident. If the truck driver’s actions were especially egregious and negligence occurred, your lawyer may be arguing that the truck driver should not have their commercial driver’s license anymore because they are a danger to others on the road.
Following an accident, there are some reasons that a trucking company may decide to no longer employ that driver, as an attorney, like a truck accident attorney, knows.
While many people may not want to fire someone out of revenge, there comes a time when calling for someone to be removed from their job is an act of justice. Many truck drivers understand that there are certain rules they need to follow to keep the roads as safe as possible. When a driver willfully defies these rules and causes an injury–your injury–then your lawyer may call for the driver’s removal from their job so no one else gets hurt.
