Book Description
Heavy truck braking performance is affected by the maintenance of the braking system. If parts of the system are inoperative or not functioning properly, system performance deteriorates. Of the 189 cases investigated by the Safety Board, this safety study focuses on 32 cases that involved heavy trucks with brake problems. Of these 32 accidents, one of the most prevalent vehicle-related safety issues that surfaced was out-of-adjustment brakes. The report concludes with recommendations to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the American Trucking Associations, and the National Private Truck Council.
