What should I do after a truck accident in Georgia?

Commercial trucking cases are governed by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, not just Georgia traffic law. Critical evidence — driver logs, electronic control module (ECM) data, dashcam, drug/alcohol tests, and maintenance records — can be legally destroyed after 30–90 days. Send a spoliation letter fast. Coverage is also much higher: interstate trucks carry a $750,000–$5,000,000 minimum federal policy, so settlements dwarf ordinary auto cases. Do not give a recorded statement to the trucking insurer.
