摘要

Transportation is vital in daily life for goods transfer, often managed by trucking companies for long-distance haulage due to their efficient truck sizes and capabilities. However, these factors also increase their susceptibility to accidents. This study investigates external non-driving influences on truck drivers leading to accidents. Daily reports highlight the prevalence of truck-related accidents, impacting the company's reputation and financial stability. The research seeks to identify significant factors distressing drivers, assess associated risks, propose solutions, and anticipate improvements post-implementation. Survey data from 204 truck drivers were analyzed using Multivariate Analysis.
