NHVR launches truck safety campaign
New campaign focuses on the space that trucks needThe NHVR has this week rolled out a safety campaign We Need Space targeted at car drivers.
The campaign, which stars former Australian Supercars star Garth Tander and professional truck driver Kerri Connors, targets common driving mistakes car drivers make around trucks.
“A Supercar race is held on a closed circuit, with masses of safety equipment, and cars all going in the same direction, all piloted by highly experienced and trained drivers,” Tander said. “Contrast that with a truck driver who has so much more to deal with.”
The campaign also touches on other messages such as how to overtake a truck safely and how to keep out of a truck’s blind spots.
The campaign is made up of a series of videos, posters and fact sheets and is available here and at the NHVR's Facebook page.
