Wake-up to Driver Fatigue, Bus (& Truck) Fire Mitigation, Larry Perkins endorses TMSystems
Dear Customer,
Wake- up to Driver Fatigue- LSM Technologies Driver Fatigue Monitor Solution…
All Transport Haulage Operators, Regulators, Authorities- be it On-Road or Off-Road- acknowledge the inherent risks of Driver Fatigue. Driver Fatigue is implicated in approximately 60% of Mining accidents involving Haul Trucks and up to 30% of Road Crashes (On- Road).
The NTARC / NTI Major Accident Investigation Report (2015) claims in 2013 that 15% of road fatalities were identified as being fatigue-related crashes, although the actual number could be much higher as it can be difficult to identify fatigue as a causal factor.

Tyre Monitoring Systems recommended to mitigate rising Bus and Coach Fires
Monitoring correct Tyre & Wheel Pressures / Temperatures to avoid Bus Fires is Critical!
According to the BIC (Bus Industry Confederation) –Fire Advisory Report 2014- "Fire mitigation on Buses" is seen as a key safety issue for bus operators and drivers, bus suppliers and manufacturers, bus passengers and government agencies at all levels. Currently every week in Australia at least one bus experiences a potentially fatal fire incident. The potential for a fatal bus fire in Australia does exist, especially for buses operating in high density urban environments or in traffic tunnels".
