Statute of Limitations
Mississippi has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury from truck accidents (Miss. Code § 15-1-49). Mississippi follows pure comparative fault — recovery reduced by fault percentage but never barred. Wrongful death has a 3-year SOL. Claims against the Mississippi DOT or local government entities require compliance with the Mississippi Tort Claims Act (Miss. Code § 11-46-11).
