Monthly Fleet Update focuses on Safe Loading

10 July 2023

National Highways releases the July Monthly Fleet Update focussing on Safe Loading . Packed full of resources for both managers and drivers, they include Toolbox Talk videos, posters, podcasts, interviews, articles and social media messages. All can be downloaded free of charge.

With DVSA issuing 2,000 prohibitions a year to vehicles for insecure loads, both drivers and fleet operators can face significant penalties if a vehicle load is unsafe.

Insecure loads are illegal, and highly dangerous. 62,000 items fell off vehicles onto the strategic road network in 2022. This is a key cause of injury, serious collisions and network delays.
