An 18 wheeler tractor-trailer truck jack-knifed and hit a bridge on I-10 near exit 41 in Biloxi, MS spilling diesel fuel all over the highway. Hazardous material crews were called out to clean up the spilled fuel.
Fatigued drivers are the most common cause of 18 wheeler accidents. The company pushes the drivers to drive long hours even though the federal motor carrier safety regulations require that the driver take a break after working so many hours. This regulation is violated constantly by the truckers by fixing their log book to reflect that they took a break when in fact they did not.
