Next time you see an opening in front of a 🚛, whether you’re changing lanes or pulling into traffic, remember these numbers. If you drive a 🚛, these numbers are important to you as well

If a 🚛 weighs 8️⃣0️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ pounds and is traveling 6️⃣7️⃣ miles per hour it generates 1️⃣1️⃣,9️⃣7️⃣0️⃣,6️⃣7️⃣7️⃣ ft/lbs of kinetic energy

A Dodge Charger 🚓, for example, would need to travel 2️⃣6️⃣5️⃣ miles per hour to match that kinetic energy.

In a crash, higher kinetic energy creates a more detrimental impact, which leads to a higher rate of injuries.
