New feature designed to stop bridge strikes added to Fleetcheck app
Date: Monday, April 17, 2023
A new feature has been added to Fleetcheck’s Vehicle Inspection App with the aim of preventing commercial vehicle drivers from being involved in bridge strikes.
The company says the feature issues a reminder that they are currently using a high vehicle whenever they carry out a scheduled vehicle inspection.
Fleetcheck managing director Peter Golding said: “Bridge strikes are not that common but are hugely expensive and disruptive when they do happen, so avoiding them is always a priority for fleets.
“Historically, they have been seen as a problem for HGVs but, as recent reporting from Logistics UK has pointed out, they also affect high roof vans.
“Providing a simple reminder within the app both keeps the whole issue of bridge strikes front-of-mind for the driver and tells those who regularly swap from vehicle to vehicle the height of the HGV or van they are currently driving.”
