This book was written to provide an overview of trucking and the trucking industry. This basic book is designed for anyone who is interested in learning about different aspects of the industry, whether it be the mechanics of tractors and trailers, their safe operation, loading or federal regulations. The book is an update and expansion of Don Asa's earlier book entitled The Trucking and Truck Accident Handbook published in 1983.
Designed for risk managers and claims adjusters, this book is about gathering accident information quickly and economically. It is for personnel who need to gather and record information accurately in order to make informed decisions. The book facilitates lower costs of an initial investigation by doing more 'in house' while increasing the quality of the product.
