Key Messages
Increasing trend of Rollovers into 2013.
Majority of Rollovers taking place with Fluid Haulers and LGV. They are happening mostly in Winter months (Q1, Dec).
Weather and speed are big factors for Rollovers – esp for LGV (>25 mph under ice/snow conditions). Fluid Hauler rollovers have generally been at low speeds (<25 mph).
At least 50% of LGV incidents took place during commutes.
A large part of the incidents taking place in Northern/Remote areas.
SSE’s have been a contributing factor in Rollovers for Appalachia Fluid Haulers
The main causes for Rollovers have been:
Improper position of truck on roadway
Poor Judgement
Failure to recognize the hazards; or too late to recognize them
Distraction
