Q: I had an accident in a commercial vehicle. It was my fault, but I wasn't charged legally. I'm now terrified to drive.
I can drive my car, but it's hard. I don't know if I can drive a truck again, as I was terminated for the accident. If this prevents me from driving a commercial again, would I have a case?
A: If the accident was your fault, on what basis could you possibly sue the other party? The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney.

A:
If you have PTSD from it go to a doctor. Consult with a member of the NY state Trial Lawyers Assn who handles workers compensation & car crashes--they give free consultations. If you had physical fallout very important to go get checked out. PTSD only cases are very difficult to get bills paid for & any recovery without any physical injury. If you hurt you go to the doctor.
On the PTSD--look for EMDR.
Good luck!
