ON THE ROAD

摘要

Kevin Walden (pictured below), who has been driving trucks for 23 years, works out of Wincanton's Gloucester depot. He has just spent two days Mailing the demonstration trailer (which is allowed on the public roads as long as it isn't used for hire and reward), and is impressed. "From a driver's point of view, there really isn't a lot of difference between this and a normal trailer," he says. As we drive out of the depot and take a sharp right turn onto the public road, we hear a slight noise from the trailer, which Walden explains is the I-Corner working. When the trailer is unladen, and travelling in a straight line, the first axle is always lifted. But when the vehicle turns, I-Corner automatically lowers the axle.
