When driver conduct is part of the dispute, a suitably qualified expert may examine applicable driver qualification or training records, inspection responsibilities, operating procedures, company instructions, trip documentation, and the circumstances in which the commercial vehicle was being used. The relevant records and regulatory requirements depend on the type of vehicle, its operation, and the rules applicable to the driver and company.
Useful evidence may include inspection reports, maintenance history, applicable driver qualification or training records, company policies, dispatch or route information, photographs, repair documents, and incident reports. The most important records depend on the type of commercial vehicle and whether the dispute concerns its condition, equipment, driver, or operating practices.
As areas of expertise, Commercial Vehicles can encompass a broader range of vehicles used in business or work operations, while Trucking more specifically focuses on trucks, motor carriers, trucking operations, driver records, freight movement, and related carrier practices. These expertise categories should not be confused with regulatory definitions of a commercial motor vehicle, which depend on the applicable law and type of operation. A dispute involving a commercial truck may require either or both areas depending on the questions presented and the expert's qualifications.
Commercial vehicle expertise can address vehicle condition, driver practices, inspections, equipment, and operational procedures. If the case requires analysis of speed, trajectories, impact dynamics, vehicle motion, or the physical sequence of a collision, accident-reconstruction expertise may also be required.
