If a truck plows through a construction zone and hits five cars, guess what everyone has to split?
⠀
I've handled hundreds of these cases. The federal minimum insurance requirement for semis is still $750,000 per accident. Not per vehicle. Not per person injured. Per accident.
⠀
➡️ A 40-ton truck can destroy multiple vehicles and seriously injure multiple families, but that $750,000 gets divided among everyone affected.
⠀
When I see families dealing with life-changing injuries and property damage, that amount doesn't come close to covering the real costs. The trucking industry has fought increases to this limit for decades.

Interstate 70 in Indiana is home to a high volume of semi crashes, with a total of 90 accidents involving semi-trucks in 2025 on the stretch of the interstate between Terre Haute and Indianapolis, resulting in 117 injuries and two fatalities, according to preliminary data from Semicrashmap.com. Of those 90 accidents, police initially found the semi driver to be at fault for 53 of them. This would mean that over 58% of these semi wrecks were the fault of the semi driver. This percentage is higher than what has been published nationally. We will have to watch and see if this trend continues into 2026.
⠀
Nationally Recognized and Board-Certified Truck Accident Attorney David W. Craig said that these statistics don’t surprise him. “We are currently representing victims of a semi accident on I-70 between Indianapolis and Terre Haute. Over the years, I don’t remember a time in which we weren’t representing someone that was hurt or killed by a commercial motor vehicle on this stretch on the interstate.”
⠀
This non-stop route between states and metropolitan areas can lead to heavy freight traffic across Indiana, creating major potential for dangerous semi and heavy truck wrecks in this corridor. Drivers should be conscientious of the semi-trucks around them as they enter or exit Indiana near Terre Haute and as they approach Indianapolis from the west due to increased freight traffic in these regions, particularly around both airports.

What happens when 1,800 commercial drivers lose their licenses overnight?
⠀
In the latest episode of After the Crash: Ask David, Board-Certified Truck Accident Attorney David W. Craig breaks down Indiana’s major Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) crackdown under House Enrolled Act 1200 and what these changes could mean for truck safety across the state.
⠀
The episode explores the fatal crashes that led to the new law, how Indiana is tightening CDL requirements and enforcement, and the increased accountability now facing trucking companies that knowingly hire unqualified drivers. Indiana also became the first state to criminalize certain federal motor carrier safety violations under the new legislation.

Some trucking companies don’t just cut corners… they change identities to stay on the road.
⠀
In the latest episode of After the Crash: Ask David, Board-Certified Truck Accident Attorney David W. Craig discusses the dangers of “chameleon carriers” — trucking companies that change names and obtain new Department of Transportation (DOT) numbers to stay in business despite poor safety records. Studies show chameleon carriers are three to four times more likely to be involved in a serious or fatal crash.
⠀
Watch the full episode to learn why stronger accountability matters for everyone on the road.

RED FLAG ALERT! 🚩 If a trucking company or their insurance carrier tells you which lawyer to hire after a wreck, that’s a problem.
⠀
Some trucking companies will recommend an “estate attorney” for a wrongful death case. But an estate attorney isn’t a truck accident attorney. They don’t know the federal regulations or the industry standards that can prove liability. You are entitled to pick an attorney that you trust will fight for you.
⠀
⚠️ Ask yourself: Why would the trucking company want to help you?

Most people think the truck driver is always responsible when cargo falls off or shifts.
⠀
But here's what really happens. The driver must inspect their load before departure and monitor it throughout the trip. Yet sometimes the shipper who pre-loaded the trailer bears responsibility for hidden loading defects.
⠀
➡️ Federal regulations require specific cargo securement standards that protect everyone on the road.
⠀
Understanding who's truly responsible can make the difference between getting answers and watching evidence disappear.
⠀
💬 Have you ever seen loose cargo on the highway that made you nervous?
