There are many factors in determining who is at fault in a trucking accident, but there are some situations where the fault is clear. For example, when there is a rear-end collision, most of the time, the driver that struck the other vehicle from behind is at fault. Another example that would tend to show a driver is at-fault would be that he or she violated some traffic law that led to the crash. In a more obvious scenario, fault can be determined when a driver admits that he or she is at fault.
