La mayor distancia al suelo del cami\u00f3n suele impedir que el parachoques de un coche detenga el movimiento hacia delante, permiti\u00e9ndole desplazarse por debajo del remolque. El Insurance Institute for Highway Safety ha demostrado que el <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iihs.org\/iihs\/news\/desktopnews\/iihs-tests-show-benefits-of-side-underride-guards-for-semitrailers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">eficacia de los dispositivos de protecci\u00f3n antiempotramiento<\/a> en la parte trasera de los semirremolques para evitar que muchas colisiones por alcance se conviertan en mortales.<\/p>\n<p>Se cree que el empotramiento es un factor en aproximadamente la mitad de todas las colisiones mortales en las que se ven implicados camiones con remolque y veh\u00edculos de pasajeros. Chocar contra el lateral de un remolque suele tener el mismo efecto que un accidente por alcance, ya que arranca el techo del veh\u00edculo. Mientras que 292 personas murieron en choques traseros con semirremolques en 2015, los datos muestran que m\u00e1s de 300 de las muertes de veh\u00edculos de pasajeros involucrados en accidentes de camiones grandes murieron en impactos laterales. Seg\u00fan los investigadores del IIHS, un nuevo protector lateral podr\u00eda reducir significativamente esta cifra.<\/p>\n<p>En una prueba realizada por la agencia, dos berlinas que iban a 56 km\/h chocaron cada una contra el lateral de un remolque. El coche que choc\u00f3 contra un remolque con un dispositivo de protecci\u00f3n contra el empotramiento lateral se detuvo, y los sistemas de retenci\u00f3n y los airbags del veh\u00edculo fueron eficaces. El otro coche no se detuvo hasta que todo el asiento delantero y una parte del asiento trasero quedaron compactados y alojados debajo del remolque.<\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan el Commercial Carrier Journal, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ccjdigital.com\/iihs-testing-validates-safety-potential-of-side-mounted-trailer-underride-guards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">l\u00edderes del sector del transporte por carretera<\/a> no creen que la obligatoriedad de los protectores sea una soluci\u00f3n segura. En un remolque est\u00e1ndar de 53 pies de largo, el 72% de la superficie queda expuesta sin guardabarros, pero el 38% sigue desprotegida incluso con guardabarros. Tambi\u00e9n afirman que el peso de los protectores podr\u00eda comprometer la integridad de las estructuras del remolque, lo que afectar\u00eda negativamente a la seguridad general en caso de colisi\u00f3n.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a passenger vehicle in Texas collides with any part of a large truck, the results can be deadly.
