As we work on our budgets for the upcoming years consider
the newest technologies in your planning.
When looking at large purchases, consider what has changed and what
options may make your job easier
or less risky.
A number of cities have implemented back-up cameras in their
plows as an added feature. According to
these cities, the added technology decreases back-up accidents and pays for
itself easily within one season. The
drivers are benefited with fewer blind spots and better clarity while
backing.
Plow trucks are not the only equipment that can be improved
with the back-up camera technology.
Passenger vehicles, such as pick-ups, can benefit from this technology
as well. A few cities have even added
this technology into their Bobcats and loaders, which are notorious for blind
spots.
While there has been a healthy dose of skepticism when
discussing this technology, those that have implemented the use of back-up
cameras have found it does make their jobs easier and safer.
