Moriarty joined Driive at the start of May and thought she may struggle moving to the supplier side as it is a “different angle”. “So when he approached me to go to work with him it was a no-brainer.” “We’re like two road risk anoraks,” she says. It was through Brake that she met Driive managing director Colin Hartley, who she describes as having “an absolute passion for road safety” as he previously worked as a police constable in a roads policing unit, forensically investigating serious and fatal road collisions. She has collected numerous awards during her time in fleet, including Skanska winning Safe Fleet at the 2017 Fleet News Awards and most recently, the Kevin Storey Award for Outstanding Commitment to Road Safety at the 2019 Brake Fleet Safety Awards.

Moriarty has worked in health and safety for 25 years, specialising in fleet risk management for more than 10 years and has been a magistrate for the past 16 years so has seen, first-hand, the consequences of poor driver behaviour. When you look at the increase in speeding, you need someone there controlling and making sure that people understand that speeding is not acceptable.” “It’s very concerning that they may not have the expertise. “These fleets are still on the road,” Moriarty says. It is a concern.” Transport managers made redundantĪ further concern is that rather than being able to tackle the issue head-on, some businesses are now lacking resource, with anecdotal evidence of some transport managers being made redundant as a result of the financial impact of Covid-19. Where people have decided it’s OK to drive everywhere at 80mph or 40mph in a 20mph zone and those sort of things, changing those behaviours needs to be done straight away because, the longer it goes on, that just becomes an entrenched, accepted behaviour for people. “Those things have been put back in place now, but changing behaviour takes a long time. “I understand why the Government did it, in terms of keeping the country moving, but I would say, particularly with drivers’ hours, you’re no less fatigued because the country needs you to be delivering something, that risk is still increased whether it makes business sense or not.

“I think because the Government temporarily relaxed things like drivers’ hours and the MOT, people just thought ‘I can do what I want now’,” Moriarty says. There is also an increased risk of drug-driving, with police figures showing it is becoming more prevalent than drink-driving.

Moriarty says it is “really frightening” to read police reports of drivers speeding, with many doing more than 100mph in 40mph and 30mph zones and to see drivers towing in the outside lane of a motorway.
