Load Restraint Theory

Load Restraint Theory suggests that the way a vehicle's load is secured influences its stability and safety during travel. Proper restraint ensures that cargo stays in place, preventing shifts that could cause imbalance or accidents. If loads are inadequately restrained, they can move unexpectedly, potentially leading to loss of control or damage. The theory emphasizes that effective load restraint is essential for maintaining vehicle stability, protecting vehicle occupants, other road users, and the cargo itself by reducing the risk of accidents caused by shifting or falling loads.
