In- Vehicle technologies save lives

17 September 2009

RoadSafe through its Driving for Better Business Campaign has partnered with ETSC in its new project PRAISE,which aims to advance work-related Road Safety Management and provide the know-how to employers who have to take on that challenge.

The first thematic report shows how in-vehicle safety equipment can improve the management of those who drive for work.

RoadSafe endorses the conclusion that: ‘in-vehicle technologies can make a life saving contribution to improving road safety at work. Crucial to their effectiveness however is that they are integrated into management structures that address the greatest risks. Employers should make every effort to apply them but also train staff on their use and monitor their implementation.’

RoadSafe is also a member of the Europe-wide e-Safety Aware programme which promotes public awareness of eSafety systems and their benefits.
