Design Of Safety Features For Heavy Vehicles In Malaysia

Often reported in newspaper or other mass media about accidents involving heavy vehicles in Malaysia.Hence,the safety features are capable to avoid unexpected things happen such as accident in particular.So,the design for safety features will be discussed where some of the existing safety features w...
