There are various possible defendants in a truck crash that causes fatal or serious injury. The truck itself may have an issue, such as under or over inflated tires or bad brakes. The truck might have a defective part which caused a failure that made it difficult to drive. In that case, the manufacturer of the part might be a part of the litigation. The truck owner, which might well be a large company, can be responsible for a failure to properly maintain the truck.

Perhaps the brakes failed or the lights were not functioning properly. If, after a full investigation, it is found that there is some sort of maintenance failure, the trucking company can well be named as a defendant in a personal injury case involving a truck crash. The driver might have been driving after too many hours on the road. There are mandatory logs that could reveal this.
