Although Eighteen Wheeler drivers are bound to follow the same rules that govern standard cars and trucks; they have other specific rules and conditions that must be followed. It is imperative that our experts/engineers investigate these accidents immediately and before crucial evidence/witnesses are lost forever. The commercial truck industry demands fast delivery of their goods, often forcing their drivers to push forward despite lack of sleep and poor weather conditions. Speeding and driver fatigue are two major contributing factors to truck accidents in and around the Houston area. Improper truck maintenance is also a factor in brake failures and tire blow-outs. In an effort to transport more cargo, the trucks are often overloaded or their cargo improperly secured, resulting in dangerous operations. Expunctions Having a criminal charge on your record can and will have negative affects on your daily life. You should get an expunction of your arrest record if your case was dismissed. An expunction is an order from a court to law enforcement agencies telling them to erase any records of a person's arrest and case. A person may be eligible for an expunction if person's case was dismissed, never filed, or the person was found "not guilty" at a trial. If your criminal record can be erased/sealed/cleared by an expunction or petition for non-disclosure; a whole new world becomes available to you. If your charge resulted in deferred adjudication probation; or if your charge resulted in an acquittal or dismissal it is in you best interest to have the criminal record erased/sealed/cleared through expunction or petition for non-disclosure.
