Hazards of Larger Trucks
There are several common causes for truck accidents, and The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has numerous regulations designed to mitigate the dangers associated with the operation of large trucks. These regulations must be observed by truck drivers and trucking companies. Sometimes, violations of these rules play a role in truck accidents and the related personal injury claims.
Some of these regulations include:
- Required rest stops for drivers
- Proper loading
- Regular maintenance of vehicles
- Training for drivers
Big commercial trucks can weigh 40 tons. They are often awkward and require larger spaces in order to turn and maneuver as well as longer distances in order to stop, while possessing larger blind spots. For all of these reasons, semis, big rigs, tractor trailers, and other large transport vehicles do pose an additional hazard to drivers of conventional vehicles.
