April 23, 2024 - Since 2021, customer truck drivers have been involved in six fatal accidents.


Best Practices

  • Provide site-specific hazard awareness training to customers, including commercial over-the-road truck drivers. 
  • Alert customer truck drivers to changes in traffic procedures, patterns, or road conditions.
  • Provide fall protection or safe means of access to customers who need to gain access to containers or tankers on their vehicles if there is danger of falling. 
  • Provide and maintain a safe location for drivers to tarp their loads.
  • Ensure customers follow proper loading and dumping procedures.
