Truck Accidents claims in Kissimmee

Every hotel and restaurant along US-192 gets deliveries, which means box trucks and semis backing into service entrances off a highway all day. Osceola County still runs cattle, so livestock trailers and ranch equipment use the county roads south and east of town. The Turnpike carries freight straight through. A crash with a commercial vehicle brings in a carrier, an employer, a commercial policy, and usually an investigator who reaches the scene before you are discharged, which is not sinister, but it is a head start. Your PIP pays first. Ask a licensed Florida attorney about the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in Kissimmee?

The Kissimmee Police Department works crashes inside the city, and the Osceola County Sheriff's Office covers the rest of the county, including much of the US-192 corridor outside the city limits. Florida Highway Patrol usually takes I-4 and the Turnpike. The report goes to FLHSMV, and you can request a copy there or from the agency that responded.

Which court would hear a Kissimmee injury case?

The Osceola County Courthouse in Kissimmee, which sits in the Ninth Judicial Circuit along with Orange County. A crash a few miles north on US-192 or I-4 can land in Orange instead, same circuit, different courthouse. County court takes smaller civil claims and circuit court the larger ones, and which applies depends on the amount. That's a lawyer's question. We are not a law firm.

I was hurt in a shuttle or a rideshare on US-192. Who pays?

It depends on what the vehicle was doing at the time. A rideshare driver waiting for a request, driving toward a passenger, and carrying a passenger are three different insurance situations under Florida's rules. A hotel shuttle is usually a commercial vehicle with a commercial policy. Your own PIP may still pay first. Screenshot the trip in the app before anything else.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Florida?

In Florida, the deadline is generally 2 years from the date of the accident. Reduced from 4 to 2 years by HB 837 (2023). Wrongful death 2 years. Medical 2 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
