The Australian Trucking Association is hosting a program focused on fatigue in April as part of the Trucking Australia conference.

The program titled ‘FatigueHACK’ will involve an event bringing together software developers, designers, industry experts, researchers, regulators and truck drivers to develop new technologies, designs, products, partnerships and policy around managing driver fatigue.

According to ATA Chair, Geoff Crouch,the initiative aims to challenge the way we think about driver fatigue management at the moment by “creating something new in a competitive team environment”.

Mr Crouch said that flexibility in fatigue management through the voluntary use of technology will improve road safety and enhance productivity in the industry.  See more at http://www.primemovermag.com.au/news/article/ata-to-focus-on-fatigue
