Lorry loader stabilisers

A safety alert received via the National Highways where a delivery driver who was preparing to leave site having offloaded a storage unit became trapped by one of the lorry’s stabiliser legs. Those on site sought to free him and alerted emergency services, but he sustained very serious injuries and sadly passed away in hospital.

This alert is a reminder to all members, especially when off-loading static welfare, or using cranes to rescue lorries etc.
