Abstract:

In 2001, commercial vehicles (large trucks with a gross weight over 4,540 kilograms (10,000 pounds)) were involved in more than 409,000 crashes, resulting in more than 5,000 fatalities. In many cases, defective brakes and other vehicle-related safety problems are a factor in these crashes. Infrared brake screening technology can help identify maintenance needs before these deficiencies create problems on the road.
