Tipper Truck Firm Fined £10,000 Over Tipper Truck Injury
Swindon Civil engineering company John O’Flynn Developments has been fined £10,000 after one of its workers was seriously injured by a reversing tipper truck at a building site.
Reversing is often the cause of vehicle damage or human injury. Fines have been issued to transport operators for employee injury and high costs in repairs for simple low speed reversing incidents.
Truck reverse sensing system BackStop only detects a target which is moving towards the sensor, so static parts of the vehicle like bin lifts or parts of bodywork are ignored, even though they may be in front of the sensor. This makes it ideal for Refuse Collection Vehicles or heavy plant with just a single sensor mounted centrally.
