Memorial Drive, Massachusetts Avenue, and the nearby Interstate 90 (Mass Pike) carry heavy delivery and commercial traffic through dense, historic streets.
That density, mixed with heavy pedestrian and cycling activity, makes serious truck collisions a real risk. If you were injured by a commercial truck in Cambridge, an attorney experienced in Massachusetts trucking cases can help you pursue full compensation.
Massachusetts Law and Your Cambridge Claim
Massachusetts follows modified comparative negligence: you can recover as long as you were not more than 50 percent at fault, with your award reduced by your share. As a no-fault auto state, serious truck-crash injuries are typically what open a full liability claim.
Massachusetts generally allows three years to file a personal injury claim, and preserving evidence like driver logs early is critical.
