Driver First Assist

Driver First Assist Saving lives on our roads The Driver First Assist programme has the potential to reduce the
number of fatalities caused by RTCs by up to 46%.

Driver First Assist is a game changing not-for-profit road safety initiative seeking to reduce deaths and lifelimiting
injuries at road traffic collisions, providing first-response training to professional and fleet drivers. Created in partnership with the emergency services, Driver First Assist trains professional drivers – often
the first at the scene - to manage incidents in the vital few minutes before the arrival of the emergency
services. Every day, victims of road traffic collisions (RTCs) die needlessly because those first at the scene lack the
ability to administer basic first aid. Driver First Assist training gives drivers the skills to administer basic life-saving first aid and keep themselves
and members of the public safe, while minimising road closures and traffic congestion. With the support of the Department for Transport, along with key representatives from the transport
industry, drivers’ unions and the emergency services, this event will provide a platform to debate how the
UK can utilise drivers to provide a crucial early incident response.

It’s the final day of Brake’s Road Safety Week. At least seven drivers’ lives have been lost whilst carrying out their work duties, each one preventable when drivers ‘first-on-scene’ have the right skills and knowledge.

💔 Seven families affected.

💸 The total economic cost for this week alone now stands at £105M.

It's the end of Road Safety Week, but the carnage will continue – if we let it.

Our mission is clear: no driver should lose their life to a road traffic collision because those first at the scene couldn't deal with the situation prior to the arrival of paramedics. But it happens on an almost daily basis! 🚑 💔

Drivers are dying, not because of the collision but because the first aid other workers would routinely receive is not there 🆘

DFA training is more than a training course—it's a lifeline. We're committed to ending preventable deaths with comprehensive incident management and first-aid driver training 🖥️

Join us on this vital journey.
