Dr Will Murray, Research Director, and Andy Cuerden, European Director of Interactive Driving Systems, highlight work related road safety and ask ‘why is it important and what can be done about it?’

Driving Lessons

Road safety is a major burden on global well-being, with World Health Organisation data suggesting that approximately 1.2 million of the 5 million global injury deaths each year are road-safety related.  As more and more evidence and statistics are collected to demonstrate that many of those deaths involve, or are caused by drivers at work it is becoming clear that fleet and road risk management needs to be at the heart of the process to develop a safety culture.  Dr Will Murray and Andy Cuerden explain why.
