Keep your commercial vehicle drivers and cargo safe

Although the pandemic has resulted in most of us staying home and working remotely, commercial vehicle drivers have for the most part kept up their busy schedules.

The importance of your commercial vehicle drivers

• Many road accidents are caused by driver fatigue, ensure that drivers are well-rested.
• Drivers should take frequent breaks on long journeys so that they remain alert.
• Fleet operators must limit the number of hours worked in a week to prevent drivers from burnout.
• A healthy diet is important for a driver’s fitness, it affects physical and mental agility.
