HaulTech customer and demolition, earthmoving and recycling specialists SJ Walchester are already benefitting from the solutions installed in March 2020.
HaulTech’s vehicle CCTV solutions are designed to support fleet operators with camera footage that can depict crashes, squash false claims and improve driving conditions with multi camera systems. Traditionally, HGV drivers are automatically blamed in 80% of incidents involving a vehicle of that size. However, using HaulTech’s connected camera solutions makes a fleet operator 20 times more likely to successfully defend themselves in disputed claims.
For SJ Walchester their dash cam solution provided the crucial evidence needed following dangerous driving from a third-party. Following the car driver overtaking a large, articulated vehicle on a blind bend, the quick thinking Walchester driver was able to stop the truck he was driving to avoid a catastrophic incident. HaulTech’s camera footage was subsequently reported to the police who were able to use the evidence provided to prosecute the driver in question.
SJ Walchester join a long list of HaulTech’s customer base that are seeing quantifiable value in their camera solutions. Customers are saving £60,000 in insurance claims, protecting their drivers from misplaced blame and improving driver behaviour.
Priding themselves on excellent customer relationships and outstanding service, the Staffordshire-based business were recently awarded their National Federation of Demolition Contractors (NFDC) accreditation. The recognition makes them one of only 142 companies in the UK with the award. Members of the NFDC are tasked with reducing risk, something that HaulTech are proudly supporting SJ Walchester achieve. Kirsty Walchester, director at SJ Walchester, stated that “as a busy haulage company we take road safety very seriously and aim to ensure that all of our drivers are fully prepared for any eventuality”
She went on to add that “the HaulTech vehicle CCTV system was new to our vehicles but has proven to work really well in ensuring that this kind of dangerous driving is captured and prevented where possible”.
