The National Tank Truck Carriers (NTTC) is making its cargo tank rollover prevention video free to anyone interested in techniques to help prevent tanker rollovers.

“National Tank Truck Carriers is pleased to offer free access to the cargo tank rollover prevention video that we developed with the U.S. Dept. of Transportation with Spanish subtitles added,” said NTTC Chairman Greg Hodgen, Groendyke Transport. “While it is a requirement that a tank truck driver be able to speak English, we believe that there is a real safety benefit to providing training in the person’s native language. Rollovers happen around the world and we hope that this video also will be used in Spanish speaking countries.”

The video focuses on the causes of tank truck rollovers and what actions drivers can take to prevent rollovers. It features tank truck equipment and comments from professional tank truck drivers.

The video can be viewed from the NTTC website at www.tanktruck.org. Click on ‘news and links’ to access the video. A free copy of the video can also be reproduced.
