Do we give it the proper due care and attention it deserves?\u00a0 The attention every road user deserves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s why understanding and addressing the most dangerous driving behaviours is critical to enhancing road safety, safeguarding assets and protecting your people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether out of habit or complacency, these behaviours lead to the same end: disruption, injury, asset damage and \u2013 at worst \u2013 loss of life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, within the context of a fleet operation, there is real opportunity. Opportunity to tackle risk head-on through better driver coaching, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microlise.com\/au\/fleet-management\/fleet-compliance-and-safety\/\">stronger compliance processes<\/a> and a smarter use of technology.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;What is classed as dangerous driving?&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69d0c5fed6143\" data-id=\"69d0c5fed6143\" data-height=\"10\" data-height-mobile=\"10\" data-height-tab=\"10\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dangerous driving is the careless or reckless operation of a vehicle which poses significant risk to passengers, pedestrians, other road users and, of course, to the drivers themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ntc.gov.au\/laws-and-regulations\/australian-road-rules\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">model Australian Road Rules<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nzta.govt.nz\/roadcode\/general-road-code\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New Zealand Road Code<\/a> outlines the full list of driving offences and the protective measures required by law e.g. seat belts, helmets, etc.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">For fleet operators, embedding a culture of compliance means going beyond these legal basics. It means creating systems that protect drivers and the public alike; and that can start with understanding your driver data and learning from the insights.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Life behind the wheel&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69d0c5fed618e\" data-id=\"69d0c5fed618e\" data-height=\"10\" data-height-mobile=\"10\" data-height-tab=\"10\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Our brains are super clever. We can drive whilst thinking of different things, consciously and unconsciously. Luckly, we don\u2019t need to think about our heart beating or breathing in and out, but on the flipside, our minds can wander, and we can get distracted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">For professional drivers, life behind the wheel of a heavy goods vehicle is busy and full of distractions. But road safety must always be a driver\u2019s number focus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let\u2019s take a closer look at those risky driver behaviours, understanding the reasons why they might occur and the actions we need to take.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;45272&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69d0c5fed61bc\" data-id=\"69d0c5fed61bc\" data-height=\"10\" data-height-mobile=\"10\" data-height-tab=\"10\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>Fatigue &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>Why: poor night\u2019s sleep, exceeding recommended driving hours, mental exhaustion.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">All of these can make you sleepy behind the wheel which ultimately means slower reaction \u00a0times and lapses in concentration. Recognising these influences and spotting when they are impacting your driving is the first step.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>Other causes: monotony of the road, stress, medical conditions, medication, poor diet and lifestyle.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;44342&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69d0c5fed61e5\" data-id=\"69d0c5fed61e5\" data-height=\"10\" data-height-mobile=\"10\" data-height-tab=\"10\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<b>Speeding &#8211;<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>Why: rushing, frustration, negligence, overconfidence.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Speed limits are there for a reason but when we\u2019re running late, drivers push the limits to try and make up for lost time. Sometimes, we\u2019re simply not paying attention to changes to the speed limit. Or maybe, as an experienced driver, you think you can be trusted to go faster.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Regardless of circumstance or experience, we have no right to think we are above the law. Speed limits are a legal limit, enforced by law to ensure the safety for all road users including drivers, passengers, pedestrians and cyclists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>Other causes: keeping up with traffic flow, passenger influences.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;45278&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69d0c5fed620c\" data-id=\"69d0c5fed620c\" data-height=\"10\" data-height-mobile=\"10\" data-height-tab=\"10\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<b>Distractions &#8211;<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>Why: mobile phones, vehicle technology, eating and drinking, external distractions.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are texting, reading messages or scrolling social media whilst driving you are severely distracted, even in stand-still traffic. Also, when talking hands-free you can be too heavily involved in the conversation, with your focus diverted from the road ahead.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Phones, eating, drinking and smoking are also distractions, and are all things we can avoid by removing temptation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Something we can\u2019t always control are external distractions out on the road. For example, billboards, pedestrians, scenery and accidents are all things that catch our attention when driving.
