Heavy Truck Loads Put Marylanders at Risk Large trucks are an essential component of the U.S economy. The U.S. Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics estimates that large trucks (weighing more than 10,000 pounds) carry three-fourths of the value of all goods shipped in the U.S and two-thirds of the weight.
