We are two families who have lost daughters due to an underride crash and
are organizing a truck underride crash test in Washington, D.C., in late
October.
Note: This event has been re-scheduled to March 26, 2019.
DC Underride Crash Test SAVE THE DATE
We believe that this important visual display will persuade truckers and
lawmakers that the STOP Underrides! Bill should be passed to benefit
truck drivers as well as the people who are vulnerable to experiencing
these terrible deaths.
Truckers, we would like your help to pull this off. Please let us know if
you can do ANY of the following:
1. Transport a trailer for the crash test to D.C. the day before the event
and then take it back again.
2. Transport two crash cars from Cary, North Carolina, to D.C., the day
before the crash test.
3. Make a donation to help in this life-saving, career-preserving endeavor.
4. Spread the word to others.
Truck drivers, underride crashes are more often fatal than not. The
truckers who have been involved in underrides, many times experience
lifelong emotional and financial anguish when these collisions occur.
Please read the truth about Underrides in trucker advocate Allen Smith’s post
