Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) drivers are essential to our society. These professional drivers cause crashes at a much lower rate than regular drivers. However, when a crash occurs, the consequences can be dramatic due to their large size. Here you can find TIRF’s research on trucking and CMVs.
“The work we are doing with TIRF and the Action2Zero learning centre they developed with funding provided by Desjardins, may have saved our non-profit. We have been waiting for a comprehensive way to gather intel around community road safety so we can mobilize and support communities to develop a comprehensive road traffic safety plan. TIRF is a trusted road safety research institute and having their expertise support our organization has been invaluable, we hope to continue working directly with TIRF and Desjardins to deploy the Action2Zero assessment in more communities across Alberta and beyond.”
