We're facing a work zone safety crisis in North America, with far too many accidents happening in and around highway work zones. When you're driving down the highway and see an active work zone, it's important to follow instructions, reduce your speed, and be alert. Let's work together to ensure everyone makes it home at the end of the day. #DriveSafe #WorkZoneSafety

Understanding Road Risk and Legal Compliance Seminar with Driving for Better Business
"Many organisations have mature, robust health and safety commitments and processes, and manage risk within their offices, construction sites, production and storage facilities really well. But do they ‘get’ that their moral and, indeed, legal responsibilities extend to the road?" https://lnkd.in/ef9-QjWH via Fleet News. "Let’s recognise that if we want to reduce collisions in at-work vehicles, we need to manage the human factors which cause them. The real causes of collision are rarely the road or the vehicle: it’s normally the attitudes, disposition and actions of the person behind the wheel. Impairment, distraction, fatigue, medical issues and inappropriate attitudes to risk underlie a huge proportion of driver errors." Excellent read in this article from Mark Cartwright, Head of Incident Prevention at National Highways for all those of you who manage drivers or have employees who drive for work - either in your vehicles or their own.
