Incidents involving vehicles have the potential to seriously injure or kill, due to the sheer size of the equipment typically involved.  Common incidents include:

• Dump truck reversed into a dozer
• Reversing dump truck rollover
• Pedestrian suffers serious crush injury from reversing mobile plant
• Collision between loader and truck
• Mobile plant reverses into a light vehicle

These incidents and many more occur too frequently.  However, well designed and maintained roads and vehicle operating areas can make these accidents less likely.
