Truck Reversing System – BackStop BackStop Trailer & Truck Reversing System is a modern hi tech reversing aide for commercial rigid trucks and trailers. The BackStop system is an 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 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 activates when the vehicle is in reverse. Continuously monitoring at a distance up to 3m behind the vehicle, BackStop will automatically apply the brakes if any of the sensors detect an obstacle, leaving sufficient time for a person to move or the vehicle realigned. Brakes will remain on the vehicle for between 2 and 30 seconds, this can be customized to suit requirements at installation. Once the predetermined time has elapsed and the obstacle cleared, the brakes will release allowing the driver to continue reversing. Truck Reversing System has been designed and engineered in the UK. Many hours of research have been undertaken in applying the vehicle or trailer brakes in a controlled manner bringing the vehicle to a quick stop.
