Nu-Line has introduced side guards designed for straight trucks, providing an additional protection barrier in the event of a side collision for trucks that work in busy urban environments.
The New York City fleet has installed the 2,000th truck sideguard on city fleet trucks, with installations continuing weekly.
Authorities believe side impact guards can protect pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists and Seattle's fleet has embraced the device.

Walker Blocker is offering a side guard designed to fit all truck body types on Class 3 vehicles and above.
