To coincide with the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, which is held on the third Sunday of November each year, check out the third episode in our “I’m a #SafeDriver” road safety awareness campaign. A TotalEnergies employee and a contractor present their best practices for always being mindful of others while driving.
Some of our employees and contractors spend several hours every day behind the wheel of a vehicle as part of their job. Our “I’m a #SafeDriver” series gives them chance to talk about the risks involved in driving and the best practices to ensure safe driving.
In this new episode, a TotalEnergies employee and a contractor share their best practices for keeping other road users safe while at the wheel: Nasser, a truck driver who hauls petroleum products in Egypt, and Anne-Mette, in charge of developing new forms of mobility for TotalEnergies in Scandinavia.
Roads are shared by many different types of users, including cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, cycles and pedestrians. Everyone needs to be mindful of others to avoid accidents. This can be achieved by following a few simple rules:
anticipate potential hazards,
be extra vigilant,
signal to inform others of your intentions and pay close attention to those from other road users, and
pay special attention to vulnerable road users (pedestrians, motorcycles, three-wheelers, cycles and mobility scooters).
Safety is TotalEnergies’ number one value. Whether on land, at sea and in the air, we have introduced a transport accident prevention policy to keep our employees, service providers and all users safe. In the field of road transportation, this policy is based on applying standards, providing driver training, promoting communication, defining technical specifications for vehicles and rolling out a large-scale inspection program of transportation contractors. It applies to all our employees, as well as those of our contractors.
