Commentary on Caldwell Man Truck Accident on Highway 36 in Burleson County
It's obviously important to find out what caused this crash, but that's not the only thing worth discussing. There's a serious issue with 18-wheeler rollovers I rarely see anyone talk about--especially the authorities. Put simply, it's possible this driver's injuries didn't need to be so serious.
It's possible that a truck made by a more responsible manufacturer could have withstood the rollover and protected the driver. Unfortunately, so many truckers out there are in serious danger simply because manufacturer want to cut costs. Could it be something like that contributed to this crash?
It's a complex issue more people need to know about. I encourage anyone who wants to know more to click the image below and read further.
