SAFETY INFORMATION
50
Behind the Cab Access
Be careful when entering the back-of-cab area with
dirty or wet soles. Wearing shoes with soles that
are dirty or wet increases the chance of slipping or
falling.
When trailer air and electrical connections cannot be coupled from the
ground, Federal Regulations require commercial carriers to provide
back-of-cab access steps, grab handles and plates.
Depending on what option is chosen, grab handles are available in
many variations. In each case, make sure to always have three limbs
(one foot and two hands or two feet and one hand) in contact with the
vehicle at all times when entering or exiting the area behind the cab.
