The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates 342,000 large trucks, over 10,000 pounds gross weight, were involved in police-reported traffic crashes — injuring an estimated 95,000 people and taking the lives of 3,964 in 2013 alone. Many tractor trailer accidents are so devastating, they capture the national spotlight. In the year 2012 alone, nearly 4,000 people—a 4% increase from 2011—were killed in collisions with large trucks in the United States. Nearly 75% of those deaths were occupants of vehicles other than the truck—and over 100,000 additional Americans suffered injuries in these accidents.
