Every year, across the U.S., hundreds of people are killed when their car goes under the rear or side of a tractor trailer. A safer design is available but trucking companies refuse to utilize it.

you're scari' me in the beginning of this vid, looking at camera too much and not at the road. Good vid though. When will drivers wake up. Not always the truckers fault!~

Hey, maybe we should make a law to wrap all vehicles with pillows and make a 5mph speed limit. That will save lots of lives.

I agree, they don't want us on the road in in "their" way, but they do like the products we bring. It all basically boils down to money. It takes money to install it and that means there's extra weight on the trailer so there's less weight the company can haul. It also begins before people start their cars. Put down the cell phone, make up, drink, food, etc and PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS. Bye the way I see you're a Noles fan so I just gotta say GO GATORS! LOL:)

I am not a trucker, but i see many car vs. truck, and for some reason, the law, and the car drivers have no brains. Don't act like a fool around the trucks, and what do you have to worry about. all the videos here, show me the car was in the wrong. Why do we have to keep wasting money, to make stupid laws, to keep the stupid people alive. and I would like to see the Euro idea, tested with the conditions that you showed here in the states, 90 degree hits, faster speeds.
