The high speed world of motorsport has traditionally produced at the same time spectacular and catastrophic car accidents and July 2009 was no exception. Within fourteen days two freak engineering malfunctions had resulted in high-profile accidents that left a Formula One driver in a critical condition after a severe blow to the head, and tragically had ended the young life of a Formula Two driver.
The team at FleetDirectory.co.uk took the opportunity to discuss how these men drove for a living and that all such drivers, even fleet and van drivers, need to be aware of the dangers associated with work-related car accidents.
At the same time it was highlighted that the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association (BVRLA) were pressurising the Department for Transport (DfT) to increase its goal for reduction of British road deaths and serious injuries from car accidents.
The DfT had set a target of reducing road fatalities by one-third by 2020, however, the BVLRA made strong calls for a reduction of 40 per cent in work-related road accidents.
The BVRLA believed that the government should extend the range of vocational training and subsequent qualifications that can be gained by those who drive cars and vans for a living. This should be achieved alongside the setting of standards for professional driver training.
The writer from FleetDirectory.co.ukcalled upon all Fleet Managers to make the safety of their drivers the number one priority.
