Female commercial vehicle drivers can make themselves safer on the road by ensuring
that they plan their bathroom breaks, find the best accommodations along the route, and pack all of the necessary items in the cab. According to data from Omnitracs, female drivers are less likely to be involved in accidents than males. They are also less likely to drive aggressively or speed up, two of the biggest contributing factors to truck accidents. Moreover, women are more
likely to be employed by a company that takes safety seriously. This could also contribute to their lower accident numbers.
