Fontaine Fifth Wheel Driver Safety

Fontaine International and LaneScan, LLC, have announced a working agreement that will enhance safety and reduce accidents by virtually eliminating driver blind spots on the sides of their trucks. Lanescan's AutoView technology uses sensors mounted to a Fontaine fifth wheel to automatically rotate the right mirror so that it continuously keeps the right rear corner of the trailer in the driver's view -- even on wide turns of 75 degrees or more -- regardless of the trailer length.
