A "blatant disregard" for safety regs shuts down Mass. trucking co.
One day in April, 2016, the parking brake on one of Flavio Borges Prado’s trucks failed, causing the vehicle to roll down a hill and collide into a residential housing structure, injuring the driver and causing significant damage to the property.
This wasn’t just bad luck for the Massachusetts trucking company; a month later, a similar brake failure on a different Flavio Borges Prado vehicle caused the truck to break down in a roadway travel lane and required removal by a tow-truck.
