Winter checks to put your fleet on the road to safe driving
The importance of companies managing occupational road risk has continued to increase in recent years, and the on-set of winter invariably means driving conditions worsen, with visability often poor and roads frequently wet and icy.
It's absolutely vital that vehicles are in in tip-top condition. And, a failure by drivers to ensure their vehicle's safety related equipment is in a first-class condition, can be the difference between life and death.
Make sure you and your fleet drive safely into 2008 with this five-point vehicle check:
- Tyre check - pressures, tread depth and general condition (including spare)
- Battery check - using electronic test equipment
- Exhaust check - condition and fitment including hangers and brackets
- Tracking check - visual check to determine if the tyres show related wear
- Glass/wipers check - condition of vehicle glass and wipers
