What inspires you to teach safety education to the transportation industry?

Transportation is something everyone is affected by and can relate to, but understanding the importance of safety to this industry is sometimes overlooked. I enjoy helping people understand the relevance of health and safety in their workplace and sharing the benefits. Many health and safety practitioners and Owners in this industry  want to do what is right and are keen to learn the best ways to do so. It makes teaching a true pleasure when people come willing to listen and learn. The added bonus? Learning from the experience of others in the room.
