DRIVING near trucks on the highway can be intimidating and for good reasons. Big 18-wheelers, semi-trucks and tractor-trailers are huge vehicles compared to regular passenger cars, pickup trucks and SUVs, which is one reason why truck accidents are extremely dangerous.
Commercial trucks have a much higher centre of gravity than passenger vehicles, making them more prone to tipping over. That means the margin for error for the driver is much smaller.
