Braking and steering systems on heavy trucks and construction equipment differ substantially from those in passenger vehicles and require a specialized approach during accident reconstruction. Knowledge of truck safety standards, mechanical systems, and tire performance is often needed for a complete evaluation of accidents involving these types of vehicles. Our engineers have successfully investigated accidents involving over-the-road trucks, ore haulers, and numerous types of construction equipment.
