The objective of this study by the National Center for Statistics and Analysis (NCSA) was to examine the characteristics of large truck fatal crashes. Fatal crashes involving single-unit trucks and combination trucks were studied. Two-vehicle crashes consisting of a large truck and one other vehicle were examined for vehicle-related factors and driver-related factors. Using data from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) 1996-2000 and from the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute's Trucks Involved in Fatal Accidents Survey (TIFA), characteristics of large truck crashes, including rollovers and jackknifes were analyzed.
