The Association for Safe International Road Travel published statistics stating that nearly 3 million people are injured in traffic accidents every year in the United States, and of those, more than 35,000 are killed as a result of these accidents. Furthermore, data published by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration showed that more than 4,000 heavy trucks were involved in road crashes in 2016, with 22 percent of all traffic incidents involving heavy trucks resulting in injuries, and less than one percent resulting in death. The majority of deadly semi-truck accidents included multiple vehicles. 2
