City to require bars on snow removal trucks
The city will soon be requiring side bars on dump trucks working on its snow removal contracts. They have been recommended for a long time to protect pedestrians, and some boroughs already require them.
Update: CTV recalls the news story mentioned by Michael Black in his comment below.

It’s been fifteen years since Jessica Holman Price pushed her brother out of the way and slipped under a dump truck carrying snow. I know now that sidebars existed elsewhere, but I don’t remember it as an issue before her death. Her mother certainly made it an issue.
