摘要: On January 27, 2014 about 9:20 p.m., a 2004 Freightliner truck-tractor semitrailer, operated by DND International Inc., collided with stopped vehicles providing assistance to a disabled 2000 Volvo truck-tractor semitrailer, operated by Michael's Cartage Inc., in the right lane of eastbound Interstate 88, near Naperville, Illinois. The federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) had classified both carriers involved in this crash as high-risk carriers, meaning that their ratings in the Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories (BASICs), which the agency uses to assess carrier safety, were above certain established levels. As a result of the collision, an Illinois State Toll Highway Authority worker died. An Illinois State Police trooper was seriously injured in a postcrash fire that consumed his patrol car, and the driver of the Freightliner combination vehicle was seriously injured. The driver of the disabled Volvo combination vehicle received minor injuries. The report focuses on the safety issues of commercial driver fatigue and the inadequacy of FMCSA efforts to address the safety deficiencies of high-risk carriers or prioritize action to halt their operations. As a result of the investigation, the NTSB makes four new safety recommendations and reiterates one recommendation to the FMCSA.
