Welcome
One out of every eight traffic-related deaths and four percent of all injuries in auto accidents involve
large commercial trucks --
also known as tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, semi-trucks and big rigs. In a recent 10-year period,
the number of large trucks involved in fatal crashes
rose by 10 percent.
Trucks are larger and heavier than other cars on the road, which explains why 77 percent
of those injured and 86 percent of those killed in large truck collisions are the drivers
or passengers of smaller vehicles, including cars, SUVs and motorcycles. Those victims and
their families are left to face a life-changing tragedy, while the trucker often escapes with
minor injuries.
