What to know about truck accident cases in the Bronx
Local truck-traffic corridors
the South Bronx, Co-op City, Fordham, and Riverdale all see significant commercial-truck traffic. Crash sites are often on major arterials and highway interchanges where ELD records and dash-cam footage are critical.
FMCSR evidence
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations cover hours-of-service, drug testing, and vehicle inspection. Violations are admissible as evidence of negligence under NY's negligence-per-se doctrine.
Preservation letters within days
Commercial carriers cycle through ELD records, dispatch logs, and post-accident drug tests fast. We send preservation letters within days of accepting the case.
Commercial policy limits
Most commercial trucks carry $1M-$5M in liability, sometimes layered with excess policies. The real coverage is often much higher than the placard minimums.
Venue and filing
Bronx truck-accident claims are typically filed at Bronx County Supreme Court at 851 Grand Concourse. Federal-diversity removal to the Eastern or Southern District is possible if the carrier is out of state.
