Semi-trucks are known to be devastating in the event of a traffic accident. These enormous trucks that travel the country transport the supplies we require to survive. Even so, there is a drawback to our reliance on big trucks. They are a serious hazard to those traveling on the state's highways. Accidents involving semi-trucks are dangerous and frequently fatal for the occupants of other cars. This is due to how big, heavy, and challenging it is to stop a truck.
