Truck Talk With Bendix

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s most recent Large Truck and Bus Crash Facts report (2019) finds that the number of crashes involving large trucks, particularly Class 7 and 8 vehicles, continued to climb in 2019, the most recent year for available statistics. In this episode of Truck Talk with Bendix, Fred Andersky joins Denise Rondini to conclude our three-part discussion of the report’s findings and consider what can be done to mitigate the chance of a crash occurring. Topics include the role advanced driver assistance systems play, clearing up some misunderstanding about what these systems can and cannot do, the importance of the driver when it comes to vehicle safety, and more! Truck Talk is hosted by Denise Rondini, president of Rondini Communications, who has been covering the trucking industry for 35 years. Got a question or topic suggestion?
