| 摘要： | Vehicle rollaways(or runaways) are such a regular occurrence that, in 2015, HSE published a specific consultation on the issue: Establishing direct and contributory factors to the uncontrolled movement of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) during coupling and uncoupling. This study surveyed a mixture of drivers, operators and supervisors; examined those incidents reported to HSE under RIDDOR; consulted with trade associations and manufacturers, and conducted detailed interviews with a small number of each. The authors found that forgetting to apply the cab handbrake/trailer parking brake due to distraction was the primary reason for vehicle rollaway incidents during coupling. In the case of trailer parking brakes, this was often due to a mixture of "complacency and the adoption of bad practices over time". "Lack of technical knowledge and poor appreciation of risks" were another major factor, along with inability to locate the trailer park brake, inadequate training and operational pressure leading to drivers feeling they had to rush. |
