VIDEO: Have a nice day, now!

September 12, 2016
We’ve all had bad days at the office. But sometimes, as in the case of heavy equipment operators, your office is a rather large machine, the ‘bad’ can be disastrous at the least and fatal at the worst.

As this video shows, a machine driver can be literally thrown out of his office if he or she is having a bad day.

At 2:20 into the video, we see the results of what would normally be road rage in any other machine but a material handler.

Near the end of the video, we see how the consequences of a small bump in a warehouse can have big repercussions.

So, drive safely today. And have a nice day, now!

    Sustainability and the highways sector’s image issue were two major themes at the 10th symposium of the European Asphalt Paving Association in Paris. Margo Cole reports. Sustainability was explicit or implicit in many presentations during EAPA’s biennial symposium for the paving supply chain. The industry feels that sustainability is its home territory, thanks to an already good – and getting even better - record of recycling of materials. But do buyers and users of roads realise that the design and contrac

    A new study by civil engineers at MIT shows that using stiffer pavements on America’s roads could reduce vehicle fuel consumption by as much as 3%, that could add up to US$15.6 billion at today’s oil prices. This would result in an accompanying annual decrease in CO2 emissions of 46.5 million tonnes. The study, released in a recent peer-reviewed report, is the first to use mathematical modelling rather than roadway experiments to look at the effect of pavement deflection on vehicle fuel consumption across t
