Original Toronto Star caption: Responds to touch: Steven Block; of A.G. Baird sheet metal contractors on Milvan Drive; shows how a new British-designed device can stop a truck. A pressure-sensitive rubber bumper activates the vehicle's air brakes. A truck edging backward at a normal speed is stopped within 7.5 centimetres (3 inches) of tire roll; says British maker.
