Years ago I heard (unverified) that if a truck driver was involved in
an accident (no fault of driver), but was in violation of his hours of
service (logbook), the driver could be held liable since the accident
would not have happened if the driver was in compliance with federal
(DOT) hours of service.

I know the "ambulance chasers" believe logbook violations are to their
advantage.

>falsified a warrant 

"Failure to record, complete, or retain the log, or knowingly
falsifying logs or other reports, makes the driver and/or carrier
liable to prosecution"

If what I heard is true (driver can be held responsible in some manner
for an accident because he would not have been at that location via
true logbook hours), then this judge's opinion is in conflict with how
drivers are evaluated in an accident.
