Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do after a crash involving a commercial truck?
Move to a safe location if possible, call 911, and seek medical evaluation even if injuries seem minor. Get the names of any responding agencies and request a copy of the incident report once it's available.
Why do large trucks need more distance to stop than cars?
Trucks carry far more weight and usually sit higher, so their brakes and tires need more time and distance to bring that weight to a stop, especially on wet or uneven roads.
What makes crashes with trucks different from typical car accidents?
The size and weight gap between a truck and a passenger vehicle or SUV means the smaller vehicle usually absorbs more of the impact, which can lead to more severe injuries.
What are a truck's blind spots and why do they matter?
Large trucks have wide blind spots along both sides, directly behind, and close in front of the cab. Drivers in those zones may not be visible to the truck driver, so it's best to pass quickly and avoid lingering alongside one.
