Carrier Truck Parts for
Safe Operations
According to the FMCSA
(Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration)
West Coast Carriers
http://www.westcoastcarriers.net
Hauling trucks are vehicles that carry big, heavy loads to the streets for delivery. For
them to ensure a safe transport, they need to be heavy-duty and equipped with the
necessary safety-enhancing parts and accessories.
Every year, trucks and other big vehicles cause thousands of accidents, injuries,
property loss, and deaths on the road. To address this problem, the Federal Motor
Carrier Safety Administration listed the following accessories as necessary for a safe
trucking operation.
Parts and Accessories That Enhance Safety
Below is a summary of Part 393.95 of the document.
Trucks, tractors, and buses must have the following emergency equipment:
• Fire extinguishers
Vehicles must have fire extinguishers that are accurately marked with the
Underwriters’ Laboratory Rating. Units that transport hazardous chemicals and
substances must have a rating of 10 B:C or more. Those that will not transfer
hazardous substances must have an extinguisher with a rating not lower than 5
B:C. They may also have two extinguishers with a minimum rating of 4 B:C.
• Labels
Visible labels on the extinguisher and on the containers of the substances are
necessary to ensure careful handling and usage. Specific instructions from the
manufacturer and other details, such as color codes and safety practices, must
be written on the labels.
• Extra fuses
Vehicles must have provisions for different types of fuses necessary for the
operations. Spares for each type and size are required.
• Warning devices for stopped vehicles
Units must have at least six fusees or liquid-burning flares. Fusees must be able
to burn for at least half an hour. Liquid-burning flares should be able to burn
continuously for at least an hour. These devices, however, are prohibited in
vehicles carrying hazardous substances. Other warning devices such as signal
lights need to be working properly.

• Red flags
Flags must be able to maintain an upright position and cannot be less than 12
inches square.
These are general accessories for large vehicles to ensure a smooth and safe
operation. Other parts used in lieu of those listed above are subject to specific industry
standards.
