Every day, thousands of commercial trucks belonging to private delivery services and other businesses drive on roads and highways in communities throughout Illinois. Many of these large vans and trucks require little or no special training or licenses to operate. In crowded traffic and pedestrian areas, the public is at risk if the driver is unfamiliar with emergency situations or does know how to handle the vehicle properly.
