Truck accident regulations are the body of safety and operating rules that govern commercial trucks, the drivers who operate them, and the companies that put them on the road. They cover how long a driver can stay behind the wheel, how a truck must be maintained, what a driver must be qualified to do, and how cargo must be loaded and secured.
