The Australian Trucking Association has launched a new campaign today, amplifying the voice of Australia’s truck drivers.

The ‘Voice of the Driver’ campaign is an initiative that aims to gather feedback from Australian truck drivers on the proposed fatigue laws as outlined in the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) review Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS).

“Seeking feedback from truck drivers during the review process is absolutely crucial, as they are the ones dealing with these issues every single day.

“This campaign is about giving drivers the opportunity to share their views on the proposed fatigue laws in an easily-accessible way, through our online survey and a series of social media polls,” he said.

The feedback gathered through the survey and wider campaign will be used to support the ATA submission to the consultation RIS.

Mr Maguire said that to thank drivers for sharing their feedback, each survey respondent will have the opportunity to receive one of five Kenworth merchandise packs.

“We know our truck drivers are busy keeping Australia moving, however we really appreciate them taking time out of their day to share their valuable feedback,” Mr Maguire said.

“Each week, our judges will select the best response to the open questions in the survey and award the driver with a Kenworth pack,” he said.
