U.S. highways are the hub of interstate freight transportation. Thousands of tractor-trailers travel millions of miles every year in order to bring products to consumers. Almost daily, the news reports an accident involving a tractor-trailer, usually involving other motorists. In addition to causing substantive property damage, the injuries sustained can range from catastrophic to deadly.
Tractor-trailers can weigh well over 10,000 pounds. Whether empty or full, they are unwieldy. For long-haul drivers, sleep breaks are mandatory but many drivers are more interested in getting their load to the destination faster. Semi -truck drivers, as well as the companies they work for, have a duty to operate their vehicles in a safe and responsible manner. Unsafe driving, oversized loads and other negligent practices can put the public and the truck operators in serious danger.
