Large Truck Blind Spots and How They Cause Accidents

Large trucks play a crucial role in transporting goods across the country. However, their sheer size and design create significant challenges, particularly when it comes to visibility. Understanding the concept of blind spots and the potential dangers they pose is essential for both truck drivers and other motorists sharing the road.
Trucker Braking Practices That Prevent Catastrophes

Downhill braking presents a challenge for truckers. A tractor trailer driver who overuses the brakes on a long downhill slope can end up with no brakes and a runaway truck. This creates the risk of a deadly truck collision for other motorists.
How The Trucking Industry Endangers Wyoming Drivers

Wyoming has one of the highest rates per capita of fatalities due to truck driving accidents. Large trucks are inherently more dangerous than everyday cars because of their immense size and the high speeds at which they tend to travel. Trucking companies encourage unrealistic schedules and create incentives for faster deliveries. This means that the shifts are longer so the drivers are more fatigued, putting them at risk of causing an accident.
Black Box Data Explained

Very few accidents are as complicated, or as devastating, as those involving large semi-trucks. During a collision, these vehicles can cross multiple lanes of traffic and strike several drivers, adding to the confusion. You may not be sure how your accident occurred, much less on how to hold the driver at fault. However, like planes, semi-trucks are required to have black boxes that can record the exact moment an accident occurred and provide much-needed clarity when it comes time to file a claim.
