The first part of the hearing focused on whether Zhukovsky engaged in reckless driving that contributed to the loss of life. Zhukovsky was not present in person, but appeared via video.

The state showed a photo of the truck and trailer Zhukovskyy was driving, as well as a map showing the miles Zhukovskyy drove that day. He started in Massachusetts, traveled to New York and then New Hampshire before heading home when the crash occurred.

The state also read witness accounts that said the truck was rocking back and forth and crossing the center line on the day of the accident. Statements that Zhukovsky made to the state police after the accident were also read out as evidence.

“After hitting something, Zhukovskyy stated that the airbags deployed, he lost control of the truck and hit four or five motorcycles,” said Dave Hilts of the Department of Safety. “He said, ‘Yeah, everything started. It’s, you know, like the first punch, when I hit everything, everything exploded.'”

Zhukovsky’s lawyer said his client was not impaired and was driving on the correct side of the road.

The hearing officer decides the case based on whether something is more likely or not. This represents a lower standard than in a criminal trial, which requires evidence beyond a reasonable doubt.

The hearing ended Wednesday afternoon and a decision is expected within 15 business days.
