According to the most recent statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 3,921 people were killed in large truck/semi truck/tractor trailer accidents in 2012. This is an 8.9% increase from 2011. This doesn’t include the more than 104,000 people who were injured in crashes involving large trucks in 2012, a more than 18% increase from 2011. And, it is expected that this rate will continue to rise with more and more miles being driven by tractor trailers every year.
