Fraudulent Log Books
Trucking companies and their drivers are required to keep good records of things like hours spent on the road, mileage, maintenance, service, and the weights of the loads that are being carried. Although a fraudulent log book is not the cause of a trucking accident, it is usually a clear sign of truck driver negligence. Truck drivers and their employers usually won't falsify their log books unless there is something to hide.
At Murphy Law Firm LLC, we investigate the evidence surrounding the accident, including the driver log books, to find any signs of driver fraud or cover up. If there is any indication of driver negligence, our Baton Rouge 18-wheeler accident lawyers will do everything possible to uncover it.
