What is the maximum speed limit when driving with a person in the bucket of a deicing vehicle?

When it comes to operating a de-icing vehicle with a person in the bucket, safety is a paramount concern. The maximum speed limit of 4 mph is designed to minimize the risk of injury to the person in the bucket. At this speed, the operator can maintain better control of the vehicle, reduce the likelihood of sudden movements, and ensure that any potential hazards can be addressed promptly.

Higher speeds could result in instability or decreased visibility, increasing the risk of accidents or falls, which could be especially detrimental when a worker is elevated. By adhering to this limit, operators can prioritize the safety of personnel while effectively performing de-icing operations.
