Mark Caruso is a former truck driver. Before attending law school Mark Caruso worked for his father’s large manufacturing business driving large trucks and trailers on the highways of Southern California. He understands the trucking laws and traffic safety laws that must be followed by trucking companies and truck drivers operating on public roads. He understands the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act (FMCSA), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), New Mexico Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (NM-MCSR), New Mexico Transportation Network Company Services Act (NM-TNCSA), New Mexico Motor Vehicle Code (NM-MVC) and New Mexico Traffic Safety Act (NM-TSA). These are the laws that govern the safe operation of a commercial truck by truck drivers and trucking companies on our public roads and highways. When these laws are violated, the results can cause severe personal injury and death.
