We All Need Space
The road toll has increased across every state and territory in the last 12 months. There were 196 lives lost in Australia as a result of road crashes involving trucks and cars and around 70% of these serious incidents the light vehicle driver was at fault. The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator has launched campaign to educate all road users on how to share the roads safely with trucks. It’s called 'We All Need Space' giving trucks the space they need to ensure everyone gets to their destination safely.
In this story you'll hear from CGVC director of Works and Infrastructure, Amy Neubauer; campaign celebrity pop in's, Outback trucker, "Yogi" Kendall; Comedian Jimmy Rees and local transporters, Earles Transport.
