To raise awareness regarding large truck collisions, these attorneys highlight the findings of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, an organization created to promote the safe operation of commercial vehicles.
After conducting research and analysis, the FMCSA reports that, of the 33,808 people killed in motor vehicle crashes in 2009 nationwide, 10% (3,380) died in crashes that involved large trucks. Another 74,000 people were injured in crashes involving large trucks. Yet, only 15% of those killed and 22% of those injured were the actual occupants of large trucks. The majority of the people who died or were hurt in crashes that involved large trucks were riding in other vehicles.
