There have been over 8000 injuries and 24 deaths in the motor vehicle repair (MVR) industry over the last 5 years. People at work on the roadside either recovering or repairing motor vehicles, including tyre and windscreen replacement, are at risk from other road users. As many RTI's are not reportable to the HSE, the exact number killed or injured is not known but it is estimated that there could be up to 10 deaths from this cause every year.
