Last week the World Health Organisation and the United Nations launched a new road safety initiative. The initiative has been termed The Decade of Action for Road Safety 2021-2030. The launch sets the ambitious target of preventing at least 50% of all road traffic deaths and injuries by 2030. Currently, road crashes cause over 1.3 million preventable deaths globally. Additionally, road accidents cause over 50 million injuries each year. This makes road accidents the leading killer of children and young people worldwide aged 5-29.’

The new Global Plan details the actions needed to achieve its 2030 goal. This includes accelerated action to make walking, cycling and using public transport safe therefore aiding greener forms of transport. Additionally, it calls for the improvement of vehicle and driver behaviour in an effort to ensure safer roads.

Effective fleet management is the key to any business’s success. GPS tracking helps fleet managers to reduce road risks while improving business performance, cost efficiency and staff wellbeing.
