Beep beep beep

I have never been to a plant that requires them. Now a lot require your flashers to be on when backing.

 

I thought this thread was going to be about a Gordon Ramsey employee motivation video.





Every worksite I have been on in the last couple of decades has required them. The requirement* is written into our provincial occupational health and safety code.

*Required if the operator's view is obscured and if a spotter is not present.

 

They make "white noise" backup alarms instead of that Obnoxious beep. They don't echo as much, so if you hear one, you know where it's really coming from.

 

Backup alarm being replaced more frequently with 'white noise' by B.C. businesses | Heavy Equipment Guide.

Very interesting. First time I've ever heard of it. Thanks.

 

I’m a deaf trucker, what’s white noise?

 

Huh??

 

It's like putting your face under a shower head VS someone poking you in the cheek with their finger.

 

Great explanation Skellr!

 

It is almost 2021 and still today the trucking industry still doesn't understand the driver's enough to know the business that trailers should have reverse lights on them by now.

For some dumb reason the trailer manufacturers decided to make the new models with lights the size of a dime. Good luck finding those at the Love's or TA.
