What Are the Different Classifications of Commercial Trucks?

by Leave a Comment

With the number of trucks on the road carrying a variety of goods and services, it’s important to classify these trucks so people can be kept safe. The government classifies commercial trucks by weight. It’s important all laws are abided by to decrease the chances of an accident happening. When the laws are ignored, lives are put at risk.

Understanding Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

Knowing a vehicle’s gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is important, especially if you’re driving a larger vehicle. If a vehicle is overloaded, there are a number of problems that could occur. If, for example, the vehicle is too heavy, the brakes may not be strong enough to slow the vehicle down or stop effectively. While a truck’s gross vehicle weight (GVW) can change, the GVWR will remain constant. [Read more…] about What Are the Different Classifications of Commercial Trucks?

Car Wrecks and Insurance Premiums

“Will my insurance premium increase even if a car wreck was not my fault?” This is a common question that we receive from a lot of our clients. The answer to this question depends on many factors. The best way to find the answer to this question is by doing the following: reviewing your insurance company’s policies and speaking to your insurance agent.

While it may seem unfair, car wrecks that are not your fault can increase your insurance premium. A 2017 study conducted by the Consumer Federation of America, revealed that Progressive was the most aggressive when penalizing innocent customers, compared to GEICO and Farmers Insurance, which occasionally increased insurance rates by 10% or more for innocent drivers. Allstate rarely increased premiums, while State Farm never increased premiums for innocent drivers. [Read more…] about Car Wrecks and Insurance Premiums

The month of May has been designated as National Bike Month. In fact, on May 17, 2019, National Bike to Work Day was celebrated. This blog will inform you on how you can share our roadways with our fellow cyclists this summer.

Rules for Riding on Roads and in Bike Lanes

Generally, bicyclists on roadways are provided with the same rights as drivers of motor vehicles. A motor vehicle driver must at all times maintain a safe operating distance between the motor vehicle and cyclist. A cyclist that is riding in the roadway should ride as close to the right side of the roadway as possible but is not required to ride on the shoulder of the roadway.
