Doug; You may have difficulty changing the attititude of the pedestrian or the fork truck driver, part of being human I suppose and it is too late to tell them if and when there is an accident. There is another approach to consider though.

My company Hubtex has just launched a new truck on the market, a 4 Way Pedestrian truck which solves many problems handling awkward sized loads indoors plus normal pallets.
