A Truck Driver Might Owe You Punitive Damages After An Accident
In most trucking accidents, the damages you can expect to receive include pain and suffering, medical expenses, and automobile repair expenses. However, there are some cases where you may also be entitled to punitive damages. These damages are awarded when the accident was partially or fully intentional and the courts wish to punish the driver.
Malicious Behavior
Just like everyone else, a truck driver can suffer from road rage. When road rage gets the better of a truck driver, he or she might drive aggressively or may even deliberately attempt to cause an accident.
