Federal crash record · trailing 24 months
Crashes: ~1 every 13 days
Fleet-wide averages don't decide individual cases. Liability turns on what this specific driver, dispatcher, and truck's logs show in the hours before your crash.
Liability Insurance Status
Liability insurance is the coverage carriers file with federal regulators (the federal category is called "BIPD" — Bodily Injury & Property Damage). The figure below is this carrier's filed limit — a compliance floor, not necessarily the full coverage available.

This record is attached to your submission — your attorney starts with the evidence already pulled.
Why timing matters
State law may give you years to file a claim — but the evidence often doesn't last that long. Dashcam and onboard data can be overwritten within days. Federal rules require carriers to keep a driver's electronic logs (ELD) for only six months; after that, deletion is lawful. A preservation letter from an attorney puts the carrier on formal notice — destroying evidence after that point risks court sanctions.
