Trucking Injury Accidents can Be Fatal in Kansas City because of Possibly Faulty Under-Guards on Semi-Trucks

At Roswold Law Group, we know that the best way to prevent serious injury or death in a Kansas City Trucking Accident is to avoid these accidents all together, which is not impossible.  But who is to say the trucks that present such a great danger are all that safe to begin with?

Apparently, underguards on semi-trucks, which are designed to protect cars from physically being pulled under the big rig in a crash- are failing. The IIHS and the National Highway Safety Administration is calling for the Federal Government to enforce stricter guidelines to make these truck safer.

 

A few things to remember about sharing the road with a big rig or semi-truck:

 

• Never Ride in a Trucker's Blind Spot
• Be Patient
• Never Cut off a Trucker
