Introduction

Every road user has the right to travel safely on the road network. In NSW, almost 30 per cent of workplace fatalities are a result of road crashes at work. Around 25 per cent of the NSW road toll is fatalities from crashes involving a vehicle being used for business. The majority of these involve a car or light truck. Fatal and serious injuries from crashes should not be accepted. The NSW Government has the ultimate goal of zero trauma on our roads by 2056. Road safety is a shared responsibility. All of us – including you, your workplace and workers – have a role to play in keeping ourselves and others safe on the road.
