ABSTRACT:
A vehicle restraint adapted to be used at a loading dock to restrain a vehicle during loading and unloading operations. The restraint includes a carriage adapted to be mounted to the loading dock, and a restraining member (e.g., a hook) connected to the carriage. The carriage is movable relative to the loading dock between an inoperative position and an operative position that is typically higher than the inoperative position, and is biased towards the operative position when in the operative position. The restraining member is movable relative to the carriage between a restraining position and a nonrestraining position. The restraining member is capable of restraining an ICC bar when in the restraining position, and is biased toward the restraining position independent of the bias of the carriage.
