Steve Gursten, truck accident attorney and partner of Michigan Auto Law, discusses the reason Michigan has so many truck accidents: The state does not allow for punitive damages. Because Michigan does not have punitives, trucking companies that knowingly hire unqualified, careless truck drivers who commit safety violations and cause truck crashes will not be punished.
