When it comes to the fight of the beast, tractor-trailers are up there with the beasts. In the United States, tractor-trailers are used to transport bulky goods from one end of the country to the other. Some even move in and out of the country.
These behemoths of vehicles can cause serious damage and injury if not handled correctly. To ensure all road users go back home safe and sound, tractor-trailer drivers must follow certain road rules. On top of this, they must also inspect their vehicle before and after trips, stay alert and rested while driving, use caution in bad weather, and drive defensively.
Like all road users, tractor-trailer drivers should have their priority as safety. Not just for themselves but for all road users as well. However, accidents will happen even with the right procedures and proper care.
