One of the biggest reasons truck drivers need specialized education is that big trucks are dangerous. Most drivers know from endless public service advertisements and large truck crash facts that cars weigh several tons. Driving a small sedan alone is often compared to wielding a heavy metal weapon. With that in mind, think about how much bigger cargo trucks are than any passenger vehicle. Their higher weight and high centers of gravity make them easier to tip than most vehicles. Rough weather and other reckless drivers get the best of even the most diligent truckers, so wrecks are all too common. The rate of accidents combined with the possibility of transporting hazardous materials and the strains of loading, unloading, and tending to the huge vehicles makes trucking one of the most dangerous jobs out there.
