This is the Traffic Commissioners view of drivers hours and driver safety.

As an Operator or a driver, you should share the same views however, a lot of us are just paying lip service to the rules or so the DVA say.

What do you think?

In commercial road transport, few regulations are as vital to public safety and operational integrity as the rules governing drivers’ hours.

Tailgating is risky, rude, and never worth it 🚗 Maintaining a safe following distance of at least two seconds is a simple action that keeps everyone safer. Stay safe. Stay back. | 16 comments on LinkedIn

Why not join one of our First Aid sessions to learn more about life saving techniques?

When someone has a cardiac arrest, every second counts. The quicker someone steps in to help, the greater their chance of surviving.

But only 35% of people say they would feel confident stepping in during an emergency like this.

That’s why building public confidence and increasing CPR knowledge is so important. The more people who feel prepared to help, the more lives we can save together.

You will travel approximately 102 feet before you react at 70 mph on a dry road.

Tailgating is dangerous and illegal.

How do you enforce this as an operator and how do you ensure you don't break the rules as a driver?

These questions are generally asked after an incident occurs!

Be proactive not reactive!

In wet weather, stopping distances will be at least double that required for stopping on dry roads. This is because your tyres have less grip on the road.

In wet weather:

- You should keep well back from the vehicle in front. This will increase your ability to see and plan ahead.

- If the steering becomes unresponsive, it could mean water is affecting your vehicle's grip on the road.

- Ease off the accelerator and slow down gradually.

- The rain and spray from vehicles may make it difficult to see and be seen.

- Be aware of the dangers of spilt diesel that will make the surface very slippery.

- Take extra care around pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders.

We think it's a good idea to ensure experience is gained.

If this makes our roads safer it can't be a bad thing surely?

Graduated drivers licences would restrict new drivers (aged 17 to 23) from having passengers and night time driving 🚗

Making our roads a safer place is always good.

Why not take things a step further and make eyesight testing mandatory for everyone and not just the over 70's?

We've launched a new Road Safety Strategy, aiming to cut deaths and serious injuries on Britain’s roads by 65% by 2035.

Key points include:
- tougher action on drink driving
- minimum learning periods for learner drivers
- mandatory eye tests for older drivers

We're committed to doing what it takes to save thousands of lives and ease pressure on the NHS.

Our new Road Safety Strategy is a major step towards safer roads and stronger communities.
