Determining Fault in a Blind-Spot Truck Wreck

Repair or replacement of damaged property
Medical care costs
Lost wages and earnings from missed work
Pain and suffering

Multiple events could contribute to a blind-spot truck accident, including the actions of an injured driver in another car. For example, a driver could have partial fault if they stayed in a truck’s blind spot for too long or failed to leave space for a truck to merge. When a plaintiff bears partial fault for injuries in a truck accident, California’s comparative fault rule dictates the amount of damages a plaintiff may recover. Under this rule, the compensation they can receive is reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to them by the jury if the case goes to trial.
