Truck Accident Injury Law Library Entry for Monday May 19, 2025
Truck Driver DUI Accidents
Truck accidents can be catastrophic under normal circumstances, without the influence of alcohol. Big rig truckers operate under strict time constraints that often cause them to cut corners in order to meet deadlines – driving faster, for longer hours, and more recklessly. When alcohol is added to this mix, the consequences can be devastating. Few passenger vehicles can withstand the impact of a semi without serious injury or death.
The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has a zero tolerance policy for truckers who drink and drive. Operation of any safety-sensitive machinery is prohibited while drinking or within 4 hours of consumption, and a breath alcohol test of 0.04 % or greater will result in the loss of a trucker’s CDL (Commercial Drivers License).
Unfortunately, there are still truck drivers who do not adhere to the law. Accidents involving drunk truckers should not be tolerated. The ensuing pain and expense can devastate a victim and family members for years. If you or a loved one has been involved in a truck accident involving an impaired commercial trucker in the Oklahoma City area, you deserve justice and compensation for all of your losses.
Please contact Self and Associates today to schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced Oklahoma City truck accident lawyers. We can help you fight for the full amount of compensation you are due.
