    Because the trucking industry wont pay someone with experience so they will keep hiring new drivers so not to pay vacation time and a living wage,, The majority of trucking companies are thieves and they could care less about the safety of the public.

    hire publicist to portray them as caring employers who care .. A TOTAL LIE. So to answer your question that is why truck drivers are involved in so many more accidents. don't believe the stats that say per mile truckers are safer than cars. TOTAL LIE!!!

    Any one getting a license should have at least 1 week of class on sharing roadways with trucks.

    More than 70% of truck crashes begin with error by the car driver!
    Ever since 2001 they've been aware of this huh...

    We've been grumbling at him for 11 years. :biggrin_25523:

    Back in TTR's infancy, like when that malarkey was posted, you didn't need an account to post.

    At the beginning, it looks like the poster is replying to his own thread
