The reason drivers crash at work is due to their lack of knowledge, skills and appropriate attitudes. But these crashes are not usually their fault.

Murcotts has been training Australian drivers since 1969 and listening to their stories has provided us with great understanding of the help they need to avoid future crashes. While vehicles and the road environment have changed dramatically much of the driver education and training on offer remains the same.

We invest in research, employ the best people, and continually evaluate all courses to ensure that we are offering our customers the very best solutions to meet their driving needs. We also benefit from feedback especially from our corporate customers who are well informed about their legal obligations about keeping their people safe when using vehicles.

And while Murcotts' approach and methods may have changed, the focus is still as clear today as it was on day one. We want to improve the ability of every Australian driver to avoid crashing and minimise the grief to families and the cost to society. We think it is a goal everyone should be striving for.

For corporate drivers, reducing the chance of a crash is an important health, safety and environment issue. For employers, ensuring your drivers have the knowledge, skills and most importantly, appropriate attitudes that underpin their driving behaviour, are a crucial business risk management issue.
