Ford Explorer Rollover Accidents



I've always wondered what truckers think of the SUV rollover phenomenon. I sometimes work with the auto defect attorneys of the Bell Legal Group - they've done good things to help victims of crashes like that. Do truckers have any opinion? Are there additional dangers associated with SUVs involved in accidents?

Trucking Regulations



I've always wondered what truckers think are the smartest and the dumbest trucking regulations out there. There are truck bumper height regulations, hours of service regulations to prevent truck driver fatigue and more. Anyone have an opinion?

Dade County Georgia - Postal Truck Accident



Wow, this is one you don't see too often: Channel 3 in Chattanooga reports the accident. In short,

A tractor trailer loaded with mail flipped over on Interstate 59 in Dade County, Georgia this morning.

The accident happened at 7am on the northbound side of I-59 near the Slygo Road exit. The cab of the truck landed on its top while the trailer ripped open and was on its side.


There's no report of injury, so that's always good news. More later!
