Commentary:
Violation of a traffic statute is normally negligence. However the insurance company may try to argue that there was also fault on others. This is a common defense they use to attempt to reduce their fault. They as well as any trucking company needs to be called on it.
Trucking companies are known for delay and denial. Sometimes the best practice is a lawsuit sooner than later. Especially if your injuries are well defined. This does not mean your case will go to trial, but it can serve to get the case favorably resolved.
