    White Papers

  • The Real Culprits Behind Truck Accidents And Why They're Rarely Held Accountable (2019) - We expect that their rigs are maintained in good working order. We believe they’re equipped with the latest advances in safety technology. We assume that accidents happen only because of the rarest, unluckiest circumstances or because of a handful of drivers who are the bad eggs of the bunch. Then tragedy strikes. A loved one is killed or catastrophically injured in a truck accident. You come to learn that the accident was not an unlucky coincidence. It was completely preventable – the result of dangerous, systemic practices that are widespread in the trucking industry and that continue to jeopardize the lives of innocent people on the roads.
