Safety is an essential aspect of fleet management. It affects not only the transport of goods but also the vehicles and the drivers operating them.

The problem is shared globally, but progress in tackling it has been slow. A 2021 study from the European Commission revealed that speed is central to the road safety problem and is an essential contributory factor in 30% of fatal incidents. In a 2021 study by automotive service provider RAC, 44% of fleet drivers in the UK admitted to speeding on 60mph roads, while 45% admitted to speeding on 20mph roads.
