What City Did the Truck Accident Occur?

Hawaii Truck & Bus Accident Statistics

The NHTSA’s National Center for Statistics and Analysis reported in Hawaii, since 2017 there were 144 total vehicles involving fatal crash, and 6 of those were in large trucks involved. This seems to indicate that safety regulations & traffic laws in Hawaii either aren’t as effective as we’d hope, or that truck drivers, their employers (carriers), or other drivers are practicing unsafe behaviors. New technology in trucking safety will help mitigate damages, prevent injuries or collisions altogether, but for the victims and their families the problem seems to be escalating.

Generally, the statute of limitations for truck accident lawsuits in Hawaii sets the filing deadline for almost all lawsuits arising from a car accident. This statute says: “Actions for the recovery of compensation for damage or injury to persons or property shall be instituted within two years after the cause of action accrued, and not after.” – this is inclusive of most personal injury claims (Source: Nolo). A statute of limitation is a reasonable length of time that a plaintiff has to bring an action against a defendant. This varies based on state, and the type of incident: civil or criminal.
