They are supposed to. But I've heard from drivers in the dump truck industry that the alarms are often disabled by drivers because "they are annoying".

My tractor I can't dump the airbags if I'm going over 10km/h, can't release the 5th wheel slider if trailer parking brakes are released, and tons of other safety features.
