Speedy Hire – Vehicle Equipment

Speedy Services invests extensively in safety kit for its commercial vehicles. Its vehicles are equipped with:

  • Front and rear crash protection (autonomous emergency braking systems)
  • HALO systems which project illuminated turning areas onto the road and also for the use of tail-lifts
  • AI-enhanced Side Scan sensors which alert the driver to the presence of an object or person on the near-side
  • LCVs have front, rear and driver-facing Vision Track cameras
  • HGVs have front, rear, right and left-hand side, load and driving-facing cameras
  • Masternaut telematics
  • Safe access to tanker hatches with automatic fold out walkways and stairs which allow drivers to climb to the top of the vehicle in safety.
  • Fatigue monitoring through the driver-facing cameras
Speedy Services takes an innovative approach to fleet equipment by collaborating with its suppliers. The company invited all suppliers to a forum day to explore how their offerings can be integrated or enhanced through partnership. As a result its Masternaut telematics and Vision Track cameras now work in sync, with exception footage arriving by email immediately after the telematics system alerts of an exceptional G-force event. It also has cameras and lighting on the ends of cranes so operators can clearly see the crane’s position, even in poor light. The camera footage is also helpful in monitoring health and safety compliance, particularly around load safety. Having a camera trained on the load allows managers to assess whether drivers are in fact adhering to protocol.
