Understanding severity & value

How trucking cases drive severity and value in Georgia

A Georgia truck accident claim is often evaluated differently than a typical car wreck. Commercial crashes can involve multiple responsible parties (driver, motor carrier, broker, shipper, maintenance contractor), specialized evidence, and higher insurance limits. This tool helps summarize crash severity and highlights factors that often influence claim value in 18-wheeler and commercial trucking cases.

Key severity drivers

  • Mechanics of the collision: underride, rollover/jackknife, high speed, and extrication indicators often correlate with higher severity.
  • Medical treatment: ER, hospitalization, imaging, surgery recommendations, and specialist care frequently increase the seriousness profile.
  • Injury type: head/brain injuries, spine/back injuries, fractures, and internal injuries generally raise severity.

Trucking evidence that can shift the value picture

  • Driver hours & logs: ELD data, dispatch pressure, fatigue indicators, and hours-of-service compliance.
  • Maintenance & inspections: brake/tire history, trailer inspection records, defects, and prior out-of-service events.
  • Video and witness proof: dashcam footage, third-party video, and witness statements can strengthen liability analysis.
  • Company identity: correct motor carrier / USDOT identification helps locate insurance and safety history.

Truck Crash Severity & Value Summary: Frequently Asked Questions

Contact us

The severity score is an informational estimate based on injury and crash indicators you select (for example, treatment level, injury severity, and crash mechanics like underride or extrication). It’s not a medical opinion and not a guarantee of case value or outcome.

Not automatically. Severity is only one part of value. Liability proof, medical documentation, insurance coverage, and evidence quality can significantly change the value picture—especially in Georgia trucking cases.

Often: driver logs/ELD data, dispatch records, maintenance and inspection records, onboard data/video, and witness or third-party video. Some data can be overwritten or lost, so early preservation steps can matter.

That’s common. The police report, photos of the tractor/trailer, witness details, and vehicle markings can help identify the correct motor carrier later. You can still complete the tool and submit what you know.

No. This summary is informational only and does not create an attorney–client relationship. It is not a settlement estimate or guarantee.
