New resources for fleets by Driving for Better Business

A new online library has been launched by National Highways through its Driving for Better Business programme, with the aim to help fleets find the right resources for their drivers. The resources can be accessed via a QR code sticker in the vehicle, with the subject focus changed monthly.

The first issue, on driver fatigue, has a range of more than 10 assets including a poster, the most recent “Toolbox Talk” video, plus tips from the Van Driver Toolkit. 

Research shows that driver fatigue may be a contributory factor in up to 20% of road incidents, and up to one quarter of fatal and serious incidents.

“This online library allows fleet managers to share information that changes each month,” said Mark Cartwright, head of the commercial vehicle incident prevention team at National Highways.

“Fleet managers can share links via emails or simply via a QR code sticker in the vehicle, so that the driver can click on the link by phone.”

Monthly topics will include:

  • driver distractions;
  • fitness to drive and medical conditions;
  • seat belts;
  • diet and hydration;
  • drink and drug driving;
  • driver licence, insurance and incident reporting;
  • safe towing;
  • weather conditions and winder preparation;
  • speed limits;
  • vehicle roadworthiness;
  • safe loading;
  • mental health and driver wellbeing;
  • vehicle safety and security.
