Supporting a Leading Haulage Specialist
Sussex Transport is renowned for its commitment to people, safety, and quality across the UK logistics industry. With extensive expertise in road haulage, crane and lifting services, warehousing, and specialist logistics, the company prides itself on delivering seamless transport solutions, from moving containers and wide-load flatbeds to supporting major events like the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
For approximately a decade, TrafficAngel has proudly supplied Sussex Transport with advanced camera recording and safety systems. This long-standing partnership has been built on shared values: safety, reliability, and delivering the highest standard of professional service. Every vehicle in the fleet is fitted with a recording system supplied by us. This system provides crucial protection for their vehicles, drivers, and the public while operating on busy UK roads. Although Sussex Transport prioritises safety and driver training, accidents and near misses will occur. In such cases, our DVR systems have proven their value time and time again.
Delivering Reliable DVR & Camera Solutions for Sussex Transport
Every Sussex Transport vehicle is equipped with a TrafficAngel DVR system as standard. This ensures the continuous protection of vehicles, drivers, and the public. The footage from our recording system has been invaluable in evidence-based incident management and insurance procedures. Our system records:
- Vehicle speed
- Indicator and braking activity
- Road positioning
- High-quality video evidence
- GPS Tracking
The ability to provide video evidence after an incident has been invaluable in insurance disputes and protecting drivers who may otherwise be unfairly blamed. It is considered essential to have reliable recording technology in most professional fleet environments.
Upgrading to Progressive Safe System for London DVS Compliance
As part of their ongoing commitment to fleet safety and the driving in London regulations, Sussex Transport vehicles have been upgraded to comply with the latest Direct Vision Standard requirements. The move to the new progressive safe system ensures that vehicles meet modern expectations for pedestrian and cyclist safety in busy urban environments.
The benefits extend beyond TfL’s mandatory requirement for the roads of Greater London. The upgraded system is useful on work sites where individuals may move unpredictably around vehicles. This technology further strengthens safety procedures and enhances awareness for both drivers and vulnerable road users.
Lighting, Safety Accessories & Smart Suzie Solutions
In addition to the recording system and the PSS, we provide Sussex Transport with strobes, lightbars, and innovative safety accessories. Our lighting solutions feature quick-release waterproof connectors, simplifying maintenance.
They also utilise our full range of heavy-duty Suzie camera connections for a reliable trailer rear camera solution:
- SUZIE-2: Tractor side socket, mounted on the rear of the tractor unit, connecting to the monitor or recording system.
- SUZIE-SWITCH: Auto-switching tractor side socket, allowing for switching between tractor and trailer rear cameras, can be installed where a rear camera on the tractor unit is needed when a trailer is not connected. This can also be used for Moffett cameras.
- SUZIE-3: Trailer side socket, mounted on the back of the trailer, connecting to the rear camera.
- SUZIE-1: Heavy-duty coiled cable that connects between the tractor socket and the trailer socket.
