BBC 's PROGRAMME "Tomorrow's World" and Raymond Baxter presented a one-sided report on the reluctance of the transport industry to accept an anti-jack-knifing device aimed at preventing accidents involving articulated vehicles.
After seeing this excellent publicity programme, viewers must be left with the totally wrong impression that all articulated vehicles are killers on the road leaving a blazing path of destruction and mutilation in their wake.
As Britain's top trailer manufacturers, Taskers will offer Mr. Baxter and the team of "Tomorrow's World" the opportunity and every encouragement to prepare a programme reflecting the progress achieved by the trailer industry and other manufacturers in braking performance and balance to prevent jack-knifing and add further benefits to the safety of articulated vehicles.
