1.1) The safe movement of
vehicles in the workplace is
essential if accidents are to be
avoided. The more serious
accidents between pedestrians
and vehicles can often be
traced back to excessive speed
or other unsafe vehicle such as
lack of driver training many of
the risks associated with these
hazards can be significantly
reduced by an effective
management system.

including dumper trucks, heavy goods vehicles, all-terrain vehicles
and, perhaps the most common, the fork-lift truck.
