What are the Causes of Most Truck Accidents?

Truck accidents cause some of the most serious injuries and extensive property damage that can occur on the roads. For this reason, anyone might get a bit nervous when they have to pass one of the big rigs on the highway or see that massive grill plate looming ever larger in the rearview mirror. While drivers of commercial trucks do need special training and credentials, the reason trucks end up in crashes is rarely due to a lack of proper driving skills. According to the most recent data from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), the top 10 reasons that large truck crashes are due mostly to unsafe driving behaviors and errors in judgment.

  1. speeding
  2. distraction or inattention
  3. failure to yield the right of way
  4. drug, alcohol, fatigue, or other impairment
  5. careless driving
  6. lane drifting
  7. limited visibility
  8. failure to obey traffic laws
  9. following too close
  10. overcorrecting
