South Carolina Truck Accidents Caused by Driver Fatigue
Trucker fatigue causes lots of tractor trailer accidents in South Carolina and across the country. The NBC affiliate in Charleston has done a great story highlighting the problem, using the stories of Foster Johnson, who was tragically killed by a truck in 2005, and of a cement truck driver who fell asleep and slammed into a Georgetown, South Carolina church early one Saturday morning recently. WCBD's Andy Pierrotti found one thousand seven hundred citations against South Carolina truck drivers for exceeding the allowed driving time limits in just the past three years!
Kudos to Mr. Pierrotti and the WCBD newsroom for their thorough investigation and for bringing this important issue into public view.
Here are some links to the story. I hope you will take a few moments to read the story and watch the videos to learn some more about the problem of driver fatigue in causing South Carolina 18 wheeler accidents.
