Wheel Security
Introduction
With a typical professional driver, driving around 125,000 miles a year which equates to 2,500 miles a week, it is relatively rare to witness a Large Goods Vehicle wheel detachment. However when it does occur it can lead to serious consequences. This could be injuries or loss of life, damage to vehicles or street furniture, legal implications, risks to the Operator and damage to company reputations.
DfT commissioned research found that annually there are typically between 7,500 and 11,000 wheel fixing defects, between 150 and 400 wheel detachments, between 10 to 27 which result in injury accidents and sadly leading to up to 7 fatal collisions.
