EST conducts survey into grey fleets
Through the survey, the EST wants to understand the state of the market, while raising awareness of issues associated with Grey Fleets.
It is estimated that there are approximately four million grey fleet cars in the UK – more than three times the number of company cars.
Up to one in three road crashes involves a vehicle being driven for work and it is estimated that there are around 200 work-related deaths or serious injuries on the roads every week. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) estimates the costs arising from ‘at-work’ road traffic accidents to be in the region of £2.7 billion per year.
The survey closes next Friday 4th April and can be accessed here.
