According to Kentucky Transportation Cabinet spokesperson Ryan Watts, there were 99 crashes on the highway from 2013 to 2015, 11 involving commercial vehicles. The data did not determine fault.

I know! It's awful how someone hears a crash and they always think it's the big wheelers fault! I wish they would build a super highway for just trucks and let all the 4 wheelers run themselves out. They'd probably still ban the big wheeler just on principle even though they were nowhere near the 4 wheelers.
