Register Haulage promotes the campaign "For Safety"


Form for Release No. 2

The central committee of the Road Transport
SAFETY


Centralità del mondo dei trasporti. Il mondo dei trasporti rappresenta un elemento centrale di ogni Paese. Fin dalla sua nascita il Comitato Centrale dell’Albo degli Autotrasportatori ha impegnato le sue risorse sul fronte dello sviluppo e del miglioramento dell’autotrasporto merci per conto terzi.

La sicurezza stradale , fattore strategico dell’autotrasporto. L’obiettivo prioritario che il Comitato Centrale dell’Albo vuole raggiungere, di concerto con il Ministero delle infrastrutture e dei trasporti, è quello di innalzare, attraverso la prevenzione, il livello di sicurezza sulla strada, per salvare vite umane e ridurre i danni economici and social.
The instruments identified to reach this goal are manifold: the study and research, monitoring activities on the road, tracking accident rates, the creation of specific parking areas for road transport, information and awareness campaigns and security road and respect the Highway Code.

A Programme of Action with five intervention areas and 11 different projects. The Central Committee has promoted and funded some 11 separate projects across a broad spectrum of security issues converging lens, analyzing all the possible actions that make a transport (goods) sure: the industry normo-regulated activities training and training, research and technology at the service of road. This led to a real program of action that led to the identification of five areas of intervention: the driver, the vehicle, the company, new technologies, training and information.

purpose of safety campaign. The aim of the campaign to spread awareness of such studies and for public safety "is to: • provide
the size of the phenomenon of accidents involving haulage;
• inform stakeholders, mainly on the results obtained from some pilot studies for accidents occurred in the urban, rural and measures adopted in Italy and Europe, concerning the transport of dangerous goods;
• open a direct line of communication with the territory and the public to spread a culture of prevention and reduction of 'accidents.

AREA 1: Safety of the driver

The Handbook on nutrition drivers. In this area of \u200b\u200bintervention is to ensure that drivers are informed and trained on how to help you conduct commercial vehicle safely and with high levels of attention. At the same time we also want to make known to drivers of commercial vehicles as interact safely with heavy vehicles.

the importance of " Study on improving the safety of drivers related to proper nutrition in relation to driving posture and levels of driver attention ", in collaboration with the Institute of Nutrition of the University of Rome La Sapienza and with the University of Naples. The purpose of this project was to produce a handbook on nutrition of drivers connected to the rhythms of work and driving posture.

AREA 2: Safety of Vehicle


Thousands of controls throughout the country. In this area the three projects aim to develop policies aimed at improving standards and operational performance of heavy vehicles through the adoption by the alloying of vehicles, large-scale technological devices and systems for vehicle safety. The goal is to force companies to use vehicles with features more secure especially through the use of computer and electronic support tools.

The first project, the "R ealisation of a feasibility study aimed at technical and economic evaluations for the use of biofuels for powering vehicles for transporting goods ", has positively assessed the technical and economic viability of a widespread distribution network for the supply of biofuels in road transport carriers engaged mainly in urban areas, providing the experiences of other European and non European countries in this regard. The promotion of biofuel
, the study of the effects on engines and emission control, the establishment of a program of four distributors in four service areas financed by the Central Committee are all synergistic activity is geared to respond to environmental objectives, which to ensure that the use of biofuels is configured of particular interest especially near urban areas.

With the study on "Technical the cabins of commercial vehicles for the reduction in accidents: driver safety "the Committee intends to monitor the evolution of the positions of the various EU countries on the structure of the cab of the vehicle and the allocation of devices connected through an observatory that compares the experience more innovative and more effective to collaborate with the offices of the Land Transport Department to the definition of the Italian position at international level. Finally

activated together with the Research Department of the Ministry of Land Transport Infrastructure, and performed with " checks on heavy vehicles using the mobile centers of Motor Vehicles," is experiencing the technical conditions of the state of repair of thousands of heavy vehicles, with clear benefits for security of the entire fleet in Italy.

AREA 3: Security as a Business Context

The Safety Auditor. Through this area is to promote safety as a competitive company. The entire program aims to identify and encourage best management practices in the haulage companies, as well as defining a set of "rules and good practices shared." All of these rules is a Safety Management System .

In Safety Management System Safety is promoted, controlled, monitored by those who manage the company as a whole. Issues such as maintenance or the health of drivers according to Law 626, are controlled in a systematic and harmonized. Like all aspects of security management also involves costs, but - while remaining in a purely economic analysis that disregards the safety of people - are shown to have substantial returns in the medium and long term in terms of lower direct and indirect costs related to 'accidents.

with research on " Definition of a specification for the activation of a Certificate of Conformity (Logo) on Safety Management Systems for haulage companies. Test the specification on a group of pilot companies for 6 months. Defining the path Safety Auditor "means to bring a set of good practices in terms of" rules "and give recognition to companies through trade positions with" different "on the market offer. The institution of

will mark not only the definition of rules, but also application guidelines, to establish the professional status of the Safety Auditor, which is a figure whose role is to check companies and their level of application rules, but that may be, at the same time, an important channel of communication between the Central Committee and companies in the haulage sector.

AREA 4: Research and technology support

The parking areas specifically for the trucking . The program area 4 will study and implement security systems using real objective, which is kind of electronic, computer, or even the more traditional infrastructure equipment in the strict sense. The aim is to support the drivers and vehicles while traveling with technologies aimed at reducing accidents.

In this context, the Committee is funding the design and the implementation of at least three "stations" pilot platform Telematics allowing drivers to obtain real-time traffic information, visibility conditions, road conditions and to ensure the information process "on demand" could potentially make the same truck driver active subject for obtaining detailed information.

During the ' monitoring activities related to the accident rates of freight transport in urban and rural areas and transportation of dangerous goods "the Committee has made a study of the causes and critical incidents related to the world' s road transport, while defining an information architecture and computer system of governance on the phenomenon of accidents. The system, which was funded the design and implementation of three pilot projects, focused on three areas: accidents in the urban, rural, of dangerous goods. It aims to improve the timing of information gathering, processing them, and then the timing of action and reaction and intervene to correct the "blacks points", ie those features that record the highest rates of accidents.

With the project " Studio for the definition and management of a network of rest areas with facilities for the safety to" you want to place in the strategic framework of the security funding, the past and future of the Committee equipped rest areas, developing a study showing the feasibility of networking areas, to assess their current use and other services to support projects that safety is the driver that the vehicle

AREA 5: Training and Information

The 6 seminars of the Campaign for Safety ". This area focuses on projects that institutionalize and make permanent the problem of increasing skills in the field of security relating to a specific operator direct and indirect area (from drivers to company staff, staff of the Centers Furniture Review, the Future Safety Auditor) and to knowledge of the broader public interest in the safety, and then all the institutional, consumer associations, trade associations and so on.

The goal is to develop the skills to support the growth and identification of road safety with the Italian world. In this context, it involves the construction of the first nucleus of a Permanent Centre for Training on Security. The Center will address the figures directly involved in the haulage companies and not just for drivers.
But the three central technology platform will become the permanent vehicle of communication and information of all security posts.

To achieve this end, the Committee has funded six workshops nationwide to provide the size of the phenomenon of accidents involving haulage, inform stakeholders on the results above all from the three pilot projects on the statistics on the causes, open a line direct communication with the area to advertise all the tools and facilities that may be of assistance to companies on security. On this line of activity comes this "Safety Campaign". After Venice appointments are Genoa, Florence, Ancona Salerno and Palermo.
