The percentage of truck crashes attributable to driver fatigue

In this whitepaper, American Trucking Associations sets the record straight about the involvement of fatigue in large truck crashes, highlighting how anti-trucking industry interest groups wildly exaggerate its role in crashes.

"While every crash on our nation's highways is a tragedy – particularly those that involve serious injuries or fatalities – the first step toward reducing crashes is being honest about what causes them," ATA President and CEO Bill Graves. "We have often been told by self-appointed 'experts' that fatigue is the leading cause of truck-involved crashes, and this report clearly demonstrates that is not true."

The white paper shows how the canard that 30% to 40% of truck crashes is just that – an exaggeration. Download the whitepaper to find out more.
