It is common knowledge that a car can stop in a shorter distance than a semi truck or tractor trailer. In a rear end truck accident case , a brake inspection may be necessary after the accident.. What is the braking efficiency of a truck ? It varies due to several factors such as the weight of the load , size of the brake components, tire size as well as other factors. The brakes are required to be inspected on a periodic basis . Also, the brake inspectors must meet certain qualifications in order to inspect the braking system. Good brakes equal safe trucks. In all all truck accident cases, the brakes should be examined. That is another reason to start a truck accident case as soon as possible before evidence is lost.
