Avoid collision

Fork Rent, the UK's largest independently owned and run selfdrive plant hire company, has selected the VCAS vehicle collision avoidance system from Spillard Safety Systems as the latest safety aid for its rapidly expanding fleet. The company is initially fitting the system to 24 of its Terex dumpers to reduce the risk of accidents where drivers are operating with a fully loaded skip.

Fork Rent, the UK's largest independently owned and run selfdrive plant hire company, has selected the VCAS vehicle collision avoidance system from Spillard Safety Systems as the latest safety aid for its rapidly expanding fleet. The company is initially fitting the system to 24 of its Terex dumpers to reduce the risk of accidents where drivers are operating with a fully loaded skip.

The vision of drivers operating dumpers can often be severely limited when the skip is fully loaded.

The VCAS system uses three ultrasonic beams, adjustable for both distance and direction, to give the operator both an audible warning and an LED visual signal if it detects anything within set parameters - whether it's another vehicle, an obstruction or a person approaching the dumper.
