| SAFED Programme
Development: |
| |
|
| |
SAFED is a complimentary
driver development course, involving assessment & training. It's aim is
to develop safe & fuel efficient driving skills of LCV drivers. It
therefore should compliment a broader programme of driver training
management. |
| |
| Why Undertake SAFED Training |
| |
During 2003 UK Light
Commercial Vehicle (LCV) activity amounted to 58 billion kilometres
(Department for Transport statistics). Over 90% of this was concerned
with the collection & delivery of goods, travel between homes &
workplace or between travelling jobs. It can therefore be seen that
LCv's can play an important role in the countries economy. |

Where organisations actively
monitor & manage fuel use a fleet's fuel consumption can typically be
reduced by 10%, with an equivalent cost saving.
By encouraging safe & fuel efficient driving techniques as part of fuel
management your organisation will be making a major contribution to fuel
savings and carbon emission reductions.
