A loaded tipper or tanker towing one or more trailers has a lot of vehicle around it that the driver can't see. Blind spots along the trailer, around the rear and at the kerb are where the most serious incidents with other road users happen, in traffic, on site and at the quarry gate.
When something does happen, the question is what actually occurred. Without footage, an incident turns into competing accounts, and a claim can take months to settle whichever way the facts lie.
Boral wanted the same camera coverage on every heavy vehicle, whether it was new off the line or already years into service, and visibility of the trailers and quarry machinery that move between sites without a truck attached.
The programme is built to deliver:
- Footage that resolves incidents on the facts and supports the defence of claims.
- Blind spot coverage that protects other road users, pedestrians and people on site.
- Driver-facing video that supports coaching, not just investigation.
