Between 2020 and 2024, 176 pedestrians were killed in reported collisions involving a single HGV in Great Britain.
According to the Department for Transport, these collisions had a 16.4% fatality proportion โ the highest of the vehicle categories included in the DfT's analysis.
For HGV operators, visibility and driver awareness are essential. Blind spots and limited visibility can make it difficult to identify vulnerable road users, particularly when manoeuvring or operating in busy environments.
Camera and detection systems can help improve visibility and give drivers greater awareness of what's happening around their vehicle.
๐ Better visibility. Better awareness. Safer journeys.
