Euro NCAP announces plans for a new Truck Safety rating scheme
On the Road to Vision Zero
Traditionally providing consumers with information on car safety, today Euro NCAP announces that the safety organisation will expand its scope even further to provide detailed safety information about the safety of heavy trucks via an innovative Truck Safe City and Highway rating scheme.
As Euro NCAP outlines in its latest report Safer Trucks: on the Road to Vision Zero that is released today, the new Truck Safe rating scheme will enable all stakeholders in the freight industry to identify and assess the safety level of equipment in their heavy truck fleets. Not only will this deliver enhanced safety for drivers, but it will create a market for safe technology that will allow manufacturers to innovate and advance their offering within a clear framework for safety grounded in Euro NCAP principles.
