safer) workers and others who might not be able to effectively Review o Trash <br />function in a manual system to remain on the job. Collection <br />DriveCam <br /> Impacts <br />DriveCam is an exception based video event recorder that is <br />mounted on the windshield behind the rearview mirror and <br />captures sights and sounds inside and outside the vehicle. <br />Exceptional forces such as hard braking, swerving, collision, etc. <br />cause the recorder to save critical seconds of audio and video <br />footage immediately befiore and after the triggered event. <br />DriveCam repor#s that its video system and safety program has <br />reduced vehicle damages, workers' compensation and personal <br />injury costs by 30 to 90 percent in more than 70,000 commercial <br />and government vehicles around the world. Waste Connections, <br />the nation's fourth largest collection company recently announced <br />that it has begun implementing the DriveCam solution nationally <br />across all major business lines in all four geographic regions.21 <br />GPS systems can also be used to identify risky driver behavior <br />and other activities to improve safety and is becoming more widely <br />used in many parts of the solid waste industry. <br />Analysis <br />It is in the interest of the haulers to operate safely and it is <br />assumed that they are dedicating appropriate care and attention <br />to safety and safety related issues. The City may, however, be <br />able to enhance overall hauler safety by establishing certain <br />safety related requirements as a condition of the hauler license. <br />This could include requiring haulers not to overload vehicles and <br />assuring that all vehicles are specified with certain safety <br />equipment (e.g., ABS breaking systems, strobe lights, reverse <br />motion sensors). Appendix B contains a list of various trash truck <br />safety devices that the City may wish to consider <br />encouraginglrequiring the haulers to use. It is suggested that any <br />consideration of requiring certain vehicle specifications related to <br />safety be done in conjunction with the haulers to assure that any <br />such requirements are reasonable, appropriate and provide <br />meaningful benefit. <br />Options 1 Recommendations <br />/ Require that haulers not load vehicles in excess of <br />manufacturer's recommendations or limitations <br />imposed by state or Ioca! vehicle weight restrictions. <br />Require haulers to implement an ongoing monitoring <br />program to assure compliance with that requirement <br />{see Appendix A for sample contract language}; <br />i <br />Z' h <br />ll <br />d <br />www. <br />r <br />vecam.com <br />ttp: <br />Section 2 - 19 <br />
