Wheel Chocks: Small Tool, Big Safety Benefits

During a delivery to Bac Ninh, Mr. Tuan – a long-time truck driver for Thaco Truong Hai – narrowly avoided a dangerous accident when his truck began to slide due to parking on a slope. Fortunately, he was able to quickly use the wheel chocks he always kept in his vehicle to ensure safety. Since then, Mr. Tuan has consistently shared this story to remind everyone about the importance of equipping vehicles with wheel chocks.

Wheel chocks, also known as wheel blocks, are wedge-shaped devices made from materials like rubber, wood, or hard plastic. They are used to immobilize vehicles, preventing them from rolling when parked on inclines or in other necessary situations.
