Gerry Miller cite l'exemple d'une grue de pont où deux pédales de commande étaient distantes d'une dizaine de centimètres seulement. L'une commandait un microphone, l'autre déconnectait la grue en cas d'urgence. Comme on pouvait s'y attendre, l'opérateur se trompait souvent de pédale. [...] Ce ne sont pas seulement les opérations à bord qui peuvent provoquer une catastrophe. Le chargement et le déchargement de la cargaison mettent parfois à rude épreuve les structures des navires [...] 3, record 3, French, - grue%20%C3%A9lectrique%20de%20bord
