Don’t take our word for it, read some of our well recieved customer feedback.
Thanks to the guys at Doctor Air Brake, whenever we have a technical braking issue these boys know exactly what the problem is, we also use their diagnostics products in our workshop, great products too. More importantly they are always willing to go the extra mile when required. They understand the pressures of vehicle downtime and are constantly upping their game as technology changes so fast. Without these guys we would be reliant on main dealers and often long booking times. Ad blue is now more and more an issue as all our fleet rely on the product working correctly, again Doctor Air Brake often come up trumps in technical ad blue diagnostics .

“It’s an absolute no-brainer,” says Allan Brown, General Manager of WM Hamilton & Sons, which operates the largest fleet of 30 road sweepers in Scotland. “Leaving it solely to the driver is no longer a serious option, as human error will always play a part. With an automatic reverse braking system, a driver can miss a pedestrian crossing behind a reversing vehicle, but the system steps in—everyone wins. The driver breathes a sigh of relief, the pedestrian is unaware of the close call, and the fleet manager saves another life.” Allan now fits this as standard to his growing fleet.
