Enhancing Safety in Transport & Logistics

The Transport & Logistics industry plays a crucial role in sustaining the economy, yet heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) often suffer from a negative public image. They are frequently viewed as road-dominating machines that contribute to collisions, congestion, and noise pollution.

However, statistics reveal that HGV drivers are generally safer than car drivers, with half the number of accidents per mile travelled. Despite this, the sheer size and weight of HGVs mean that when accidents do occur, the outcomes can be far more severe.

Larger vehicles inherently have reduced visibility, and HGVs are particularly prone to extensive blind spots at the rear, sides, front, and nearside of the cab. Many accidents involving vulnerable road users, especially cyclists, are linked to the nearside blind spot.

Centrad’s advanced safety systems are designed to enhance the safety of most freight and haulage vehicles. Our comprehensive range includes front and rear-view cameras, 360° cameras, side cameras, in-cab monitors, ultrasonic sensors, blind spot detection and driver welfare AI Cameras, reversing alarms and mobile digital recorders.

Challenges in the Transport & Logistics Industry

The transport and logistics industry faces several persistent challenges that can lead to incidents and safety concerns, including:

Reversing Accidents: Often caused by blind spots or pedestrians failing to notice a moving vehicle, particularly in crowded or busy areas.
Night-time Reversing Risks: Increased due to reversing alarms being switched off, leading to heightened danger during low-visibility conditions.
Collisions in Tight Spaces: Manoeuvring large vehicles in confined spaces can result in accidents, especially in loading docks or narrow streets.
Sideswipe Incidents: Occur on motorways due to the nearside blind spot, making it difficult for drivers to see vehicles in adjacent lanes.
Cyclist Collisions in Urban Areas: Frequently happen because of nearside blind spots, posing a significant risk to vulnerable road users.
False Insurance Claims: The industry is also plagued by fraudulent claims, leading to unnecessary financial and legal complications.
