    Everyday Distractions That Lead to Serious Truck Accidents

    Texting While Driving

    No message is worth a life. When a truck driver looks down at a phone instead of the road, the results can be devastating. We use phone records and data to show exactly when their attention slipped — and who paid the price.

    GPS and Device Distraction

    A quick glance at a GPS or in-dash computer screen can turn into a moment that changes everything. We uncover how technology meant to help became a dangerous distraction behind the wheel.

    Eating, Drinking, or In-Cab Distractions

    Reaching for a snack, a drink, or anything inside the cab might seem harmless — until it’s not. We show how those split-second decisions led to lasting harm.

    Dispatch or Company Communication

    When companies expect drivers to take calls or answer messages on the road, that puts everyone in danger. We hold those businesses accountable for valuing speed over safety.
