National Highways is hosting this free-to-attend one-day national conference covering the key issues commercial fleet operators should focus on to help reduce collisions involving their drivers, and save lives on the roads. Topics to be covered during the day include:

• Lessons learnt from collision investigation

• What to do if first on the scene of a collision

• Driver fatigue, distraction and impairment

• Mental health issues, and how these can impact on drivers

• Safety in practice – commercial vehicle operator experiences

While the event will naturally appeal to fleet managers, National Highways is encouraging anyone to attend who is in a position to influence policy with regard to commercial driver safety, including H&S and procurement managers.
