HGV Reversing Safety System

Truck Reversing Auto Braking System – SonicStop

SonicStop Trailer & Truck Reversing System is a modern hi tech reversing aide for commercial rigid trucks and trailers

Attractive product for transport managers to improve health & safety standards.

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. One incident in 2011 when an employee received crush injuries cost the UK transport operator a total of £15,000 in fines and costs.

BackStop / Sonic Stop automatically applies the brakes when an object such as a concrete pillar or a person becomes an obstruction, or is in close proximity to the rear of the vehicle.

BackStop / SonicStop can be retro fitted to any rigid truck or trailer by onsite service engineers or within body build specification.
