As a matter of fact, there is an article in "The Trucker Newspaper" addressing this. I'm holding the 1-14 February issue, with an article on page 3. "Data report says California tops list of riskiest states for trucking operations".
I would check it out online at THETRUCKER.COM website.

I started to work trucking in NYC, and I already have identified certain "spots" of NYC that are prone to accidents:, for example: when you are going from under the 678 expy to go to the upper portion of the 678...you have to pass a small underpass, and then the danger comes up...when joining the upper 678, there is NOT enough space for a truck to join it....I mean. it barely has space.
another problem spot is insuffolk county, at the 27 (sunrise)expwy, exit 43, if wanting to go to gthe 5th ave north, you dont have space to exit the sunrise, and immediately take the right lane to take the fork to take 5th ave north.....
anybody knows any more dangerous spots of NYC??? or any other towns or counties of US?
