Indiana State FACE Investigators' Recommendations to Prevent Similar Semi Truck Accidents

  1. Employers should ensure training is repetitive enough when performing non-repetitive tasks.
  2. Employers should ensure rim flanges, rim gutters, ring head surfaces and head of tires are free of dirt, surface scale, and flaked rubber.
