NTARC 2.0 Major Incident Report has been released
For more than two decades, NTI has produced the National Truck Accident Research Centre (NTARC) Major Incident Report to give a snapshot into claims data and provide an annual benchmark for how the transport sector is tracking in road safety.
The 2024 Report marks the first of “NTARC 2.0”, now produced in collaboration between NTI, the National Road Safety Partnership Program (NRSPP), and the Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC). The 2024 Report is the first step in an Australian-first approach to sharing data and researching, which will see future NTARC reports incorporate an expanded range of data sets, better reach road users, and encourage more partnerships, to provide further analysis into the causes of major incidents involving heavy vehicles in Australia.
Australians rely on the transport industry, and it is an important driver of our economy. NTI’s goal in sharing its data is to provide industry and government with insights, drive research, and inform policy and education. This exciting next phase in the production of NTARC reports shows a renewed commitment to improving safety and heralds the start of a more collaborative approach to finding solutions for the heavy vehicle sector and beyond.
A copy of the 2024 NTARC Report is available under the NTARC section of the website, or access it here: https://www.nrspp.org.au/ntarc/
