General information, not an individual diagnosis. Ask a healthcare professional if you are unsure about your situation.

Driving on a mission is a work activity; prevention also concerns company organisation.

Deadlines, routes and breaks should be planned around actual travel conditions.

Phone conversations distract from driving, including when using hands-free equipment.

INRS recommends that companies prohibit phone use while driving and establish a communication protocol known to employees.

Before departure, clarify how to contact the company and clients without communicating while driving, and how to manage delays.

Planning also concerns a suitable vehicle, maintenance and skills; it cannot rely solely on individual caution.
