What does a crash truck do?
A truck-mounted attenuator (TMA) sits behind the work zone. If a vehicle hits it, the truck absorbs the impact instead of your workers.
70 km/h zones and higher
It is required to close a lane or protect a mobile crew once the posted speed reaches 70 km/h.
Built to MTQ criteria
Each truck is assembled to Quebec Ministry of Transportation criteria and certified yearly by an engineer.
