As a matter of fact, the commercial trucking accidents statistics indicate that out of 805 truck drivers have dies in crashes. Whereas out of all these accidents 393 of them were not protected with safety belts.
So, what a better reason for you to put your belt on!
Thereupon, wearing safety seat belts is necessary!
This rule is being supported by the following associations and alliances:
- American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators;
- Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Belt Partnership;
- American Trucking Associations;
- American Society of Safety Engineers;
- Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance;
- Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration;
- National Safety Council;
- Network of Employers for Traffic Safety;
Hence, because commercial trucks are big enough, it does not mean that it will protect you.
