Oversized and Heavy Trucks Cause Accidents
Oversized and Heavy Trucks Cause Accidents Truck drivers spend most of their time on the road and they have a couple of responsibilities when driving, particularly with regards to weight. In most instances, the truck driver is responsible for loading and unloading goods in the truck. Oversized and heavy trucks cause accidents on the highways. However, the trucking industry is prone to malice and some companies will try to fit in as much load to the vehicle as possible, maxing out the weight limit. The chances of a truck accident in an overloaded vehicle are as much as three times greater than a truck within the required limits.
