Many things often change with the times and other cars and vans and other type of road vehicles that share the routes with Lorries are far superior in terms of safety features, this also comes with the recent ambitions of the times for improving environmental use as many charities and companies set up in order to cut down emissions not to add the introduction of hybrid vehicles and further low emission vehicles that we now see everyday on today&#8217;s roads.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lorries today as we know it as extremely bad from an environmental point of view because well frankly a lorry\u2019s shape resembles that of a brick, at best. Most of us will realise that bricks aren\u2019t the most aerodynamic objects, this in mind the new design is set to be far more aerodynamic which will help everyone the lorry companies will cut their fuel bill, the environment will be cleaner because less fuel is used and it will see profit for the companies that are receiving the lorries haul as its a more cost efficient process. The new greener lorry of the future, all from just making the shape more aerodynamic seems all too simple.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As well as being more fuel efficient it will also make it a lot safer for other drivers on the road. Lorries as you can image if in the event of a collision cause severe damage and majority of the time deaths, the introduction in the new lorry of a large crumple zone will spread the force of impact across the front of a lorry giving smaller cars much more of a chance of coming away from the collision unfazed. On top of this the new regulations rules that will be set in place will require the windscreen on a lorry to be larger which will reduce the amount of accidents as windscreens on lorries today aren\u2019t adequate for the size of the vehicle. These improvements could save hundreds of lives each year and also help the environment what could possibly go wrong?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The requirements to do with the building guidelines of Lorries like length, width and design were set back 30 years ago when environmental [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[110],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8247","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-travel-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
