Should a Pennsylvania truck accident investigation include a thorough inspection of the truck?
A: In addition to learning how and why a commercial truck accident happened and the background, experience, and qualifications of the truck driver, particular emphasis also should be placed on the tractor-trailer itself. You will need to learn whether the truck was consistently inspected and maintained properly. It will be essential to preserve and obtain this and other evidence, such as engine control module technology, truck company policies and procedures, and any previous violations involving the truck.
