The state-of-knowledge linking the truck vibration environment to effects on driver performance, and ultimately accident involvement, is insufficient to provide direct evidence of the significance at this time. Experimental data obtained in this project demonstrate that truck vibration level is related to road roughness from which it may be inferred that the vibration levels will increase in the future if the highway system continues to deteriorate. The panel of experts recommends the continuation of research in the area of truck ride vibration and its effects on driver performance, and in the area of road roughness as it affects ride, safety, and roadway deterioration.
