Abstract

The fire suppression system for tractor trailers includes a reservoir, a pump, a plurality of spray nozzles, and a plurality of impact sensors. The reservoir, the pump, the plurality of spray nozzles, and the plurality of impact sensors may be coupled to a truck. Responsive to an impact, the fire suppression system for tractor trailers may spray a fire suppression agent carried within the reservoir onto an impacting vehicle to prevent ignition of a fire or to extinguish the fire such that the fire is prevented from reaching a flammable cargo. As non-limiting examples, the truck may comprise a tanker and the flammable cargo may be a fuel or a chemical.
