Day on Torts
This article in the Tennessean is a tragic reminder of how quickly a life can be lost as a result of carelessness.
A truck driver for Diamond Logistics fell asleep at the wheel, went into a parking lot at a local market, and killed one man and injured three others.
A review of the records of the driver and Diamond Logistics will reveal whether the trucker was in compliance with the law at the time he was driving and whether Diamond Logistics was aware of a pattern of deviations from the law, if any. We have had considerable success evaluating driver logs and other materials and proving a pattern and practice of unlawful driving leading to hazardous situations. Hopefully, someone will quickly get to the bottom of this situation and find out what happened in the days and weeks preceeding the wreck.
