On the road to somewhere – road safety in fleet operations

A new CFA initiative recently saw a group of its member companies discussing the benchmarking of road traffic accident data for their fleet operations and sharing learning about improving the safety of HGV and van movements. As a first step, accident data will be submitted to CFA for collation and sharing, which in the future may be compared to that from the wider logistics sector.

Companies not currently collecting safety data on their fleet operations also took part in the group and learned about approaches to data collection from their peers. Discussions are underway regarding a way forward for the new Road Safety Group, including how incidents and accidents are defined, and how the data might be used.
