Society pays a cost for truck crashes in terms of operational disruptions, injuries and loss of life. Among the 700 large-truck occupant fatalities that occur every year, about 400 occur in single-vehicle truck crashes and many involve rollovers. This study attempts to understand how truck driver behaviors, vehicle factors and crash events influence large-truck rollovers and occupant injuries in single-vehicle crashes. A relatively clean crash and inventory database, named HSIS (Highway Safety Information System) is used for crash analysis.
