Would it if it were in service? Is defect a risk under special conditions? • Has it been scheduled for repair before the problem could appear – Has Equipment been inspected prior to return to service • Is the result of that inspection also recorded More Suggestions • Berms and Guardrails – Need to exist where ever there is a big enough drop off to overturn a vehicle – If there are gaps for drainage could a truck also drain itself through the gap?
