The transport of goods across the country is essential for the U.S. economy, but the drivers responsible for doing the transportation must act and drive responsibly. If a truck driver is in any way reckless or negligent, he or she could endanger not only himself or herself but also any other person on the road. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, many truckers neglect to drive in the safe and responsible manner with which they are charged, causing countless Americans to suffer the repercussions.
