| Hazards are easier to spot, and hence easier to negotiate, if drivers know what they are looking for. Often, during a debrief following a crash, employees report that they saw what was happening that ultimately led to the collision, but did not think that this was a hazardous situation. Learning by mistake is usually very successful, but not particularly helpful when it comes to avoiding collisions - learning from other peoples mistakes is much better, and recognising hazardous situations on the road will help employees avoid many common types of crashes, such as rear-end shunts and low-speed manoeuvring incidents, regardless of blame. |
Interesting Fact In 2000 the government set a target, in their vision "Tomorrow's Roads: safer for everyone", of a 40% reduction in the number of people killed and seriously injured on the roads in the UK by 2010 |

| Our course module looks at all the common types of collisions and helps employees identify for themselves when these are likely to happen in every day driving conditions. It also tackles the 'blame culture' common with today's drivers, and looks at ways of avoiding collision regardless of which road user was at-fault. | ||||||||||
| This training course may be appropriate if the work-related road risk audit or health check identifies that there is a problem with the attitude of the drivers, or the organisation wants to improve the overall safety level of it's occupational drivers and raise / maintain awareness levels as part of it's occupational road risk strategy. | ||||||||||
