- W617407907 abstract "Using a database of 13,000 government audits of motor carriers, this paper investigates whether trucking firms that haul hazardous materials differ from firms who do not haul these goods. We find that hazardous materials firms are three times larger than non-hazardous materials haulers, and more likely to be general commodities carriers. Based on poisson regression analysis, we find that hazardous materials carriers have an accident rate 63% higher than comparable firms not carrying these commodities, and the rate of fatalities and injuries is 47% higher. Among hazardous materials firms, accident rates decline with firm size. Urban and general freight operations are associated with a higher rate of property-damage accidents. Combustible liquids are found to be the most dangerous commodity shipped. We are unable to establish a consistent link between the performance of a hazardous materials carrier in its mandated federal audit of safety practices and its accident rate. In fact, firms that the government rates as satisfactory have accident, and fatality and injury rates, almost four times those of firms rated in lower categories." @default.
