QUESTION
What hard copy of evidence is there to find fault with a truck driver?
 
ANSWER

Truck driver documentation is tightly regulated. The paperwork that truck drivers and their employer must maintain is very useful in determining if the driver of a truck was negligent. Materials most useful in determining the conduct of a truck operator include:

Copy of driver's license
Truck inspection reports
Tractor-trailer maintenance records
Truck driver personnel and employment records
Truck driver log six months prior to the accident
Truck driver log the day of the accident
Dispatch tickets and routing instructions
Toll and delivery receipts
Weight bills and scale receipts
Repair bills
Gas receipts
