Lack of Basic Vehicle Maintenance
Posted 16 July 2009
The RAC have said that fleet drivers are responsible for major downtime in business to the tune of 13,500 days due to poor maintenance on fleet vehicles.
Punctures are the most common reason for call outs, some due to H&S issues, but many due to bad practice in damage, excess wear etc on the tyres.
