Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) drivers are essential to our society. These professional drivers cause crashes at a much lower rate than regular drivers. However, when a crash occurs, the consequences can be dramatic due to their large size. Here you can find TIRF’s research on trucking and CMVs.
“Tackling safety issues requires solving complex problems and TIRF’s ability to provide forums to connect government, business, industry, traffic safety agencies, and non-profit organizations helps to identify bold and multi faceted solutions to some of our most persistent road safety issues. The ability to bring together stakeholders in road safety provides an opportunity for collaboration and connection that would otherwise not exist.”
