WHY TAILGUARD IS INNOVATIVE
9
TailGUARD is the first solution that detects small and moving objects behind the trailer, and automatically brakes.
The Trailer Remote Control clearly shows the truck driver how far his trailer is from objects in the blind spot behind.
This helps them to reverse safely even when they cannot see while cornering, or in the dark or in the rain.
Some drivers are new in the job and do not realize that they represent my company, with my brand on the trailer:
TailGUARD will limit their speed to 9km/h, so everybody around the trailer feels safer.
My fleet customers have to load and unload their trailer at different ramp types and with different vehicle types. The stopping distance of TailGUARD can be programmed to fit any type of ramp and trailer: it will always stop at the right distance. So my driver saves valuable time for loading and unloading
A unique solution - protecting road users, drivers and assets
