In many situations, aerial platforms are the safest way to reach high places. But working with aerial platforms can also be dangerous if you do not comply with the rules. Serious accidents involving aerial work platforms occur every year. Aerial platforms can fall over, collapse or collide with other vehicles. You can also become trapped or electrocuted if you come into contact with power lines. It is therefore very important when operating an aerial work platform that the dangers are known and that the driver is aware of the risks.
