HGV Trailer Load safety highlighted!
Weightmans Solicitors’ Principal associate provided an update on load safety and enforcement at the Logistics UK Transport Manager conference.
He emphasized that government guidelines had been revised following the tragic death of motorist Steven Oscroft, who was killed by a piece of concrete that fell from a tipper truck. Every load in transit must be fully secured, and aide automotive has been offering advice on a commonly overlooked item: the Pallet Truck! Often left in a tyre or tipped on its side, this item has the potential to cause a major incident if it becomes loose and falls from a moving trailer. The solution is Lee Lock, a spring-loaded lock that ensures the truck is secured 100%.
