Driving with Road Trains Campaigns
Directhaul and Ausfuel in conjunction with the Road Safety Branch of the Department of Planning and Infrastructure has conducted awareness campaigns "Driving with Road Trains" since June 2004. We have updated the commercials in June 2010. They will be on the air in September 2010.
Educating the public on driving and sharing the road with road trains:
- Safe driving practices: towing, overtaking, night driving, speed.
- Driving in remote locations and fatigue
- Road safety in Aboriginal communities, pedestrian safety
