DOT eases window film restrictions on big rigs to help protect drivers against skin cancer |
The change follows numerous studies showing higher than normal skin cancer rates on the left side of the face and arm. America's long haul truckers are at severe risk of sun exposure and deserve to be protected.
High performance window films will block over 99% of the suns harmful UVA rays, which have been linked to cancer. "The health and safety of America's truck drivers is of the utmost importance to American Trucking Associations," said ATA President and CEO Bill Graves. "Whether it is doing more to battle obesity and sleep apnea, or helping our drivers avoid skin cancer, ATA has consistently advocated for sensible regulations to ensure our drivers get and stay healthy."
