Drivers’ Effect on Fuel Consumption
Driving Efficiency & Safety in the Fleet Car Sector
“An aggressive driving style can lead to an increase in fuel consumption of 10-12% above average.
In contrast, an energy aware driving style can save up to 13% on fuel consumption and is better for the environment and for your wallet.”
Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland's (SEAI)
“Fleets are missing out on substantial savings by ignoring a major factor affecting fuel economy: the driver.
The impact of training on driving style is clear, …drivers are more aware of other drivers’ actions and they have a greater appreciation of risk and are more focused on fleet efficiency.”
Mel Dawson M.D., ALD Automotive

Company Legal ResponsibilitiesRoad Safety Authority
“Duty of Care:
You must take measures to assure that work-related journeys are safe, members of staff are able to drive safely, and all vehicles and associated equipment are fit for use.
Training, Instruction and Information:
You should give your employees proper information and training to protect their safety, health, and welfare.
While drivers are responsible for how they drive, you as an employer have duties in helping to make driving for work safer. Directors may be prosecuted for a work-related road collision if it is proven they have not managed safety properly.”
Health & Safety Authority
Workplace Transport Safety Safe Driver
“With appropriate driver selection, the provision of instruction, information and training and adequate supervision, workplace transport accidents and incidents can be significantly reduced
The driver must be trained and competent to drive the vehicle being operated.
Reassess the driver’s training at regular intervals and provide refresher training as appropriate to ensure driver competence. Supplementary or refresher training should be provided, for instance, if there has been a lapse in safe driving standards.”

“Nearly 70% of drivers who received advanced coaching showed significantly safer skills in a number of key areas.
This research shows that motorists who think that simply accumulating years of experience on the road is enough to improve their driving are wrong"
