Road safety charity Brake is inviting fleet operators and suppliers to enter and attend its annual fleet safety conference and awards.
The 2013 event will, for the first time, combine Brake’s flagship fleet events, the fleet safety conference and fleet safety awards programme.

The Awards, sponsored by Arval, will be offered in 11 categories, ranging from Company Driver Safety, to Fleet Safety Innovation, with a new individual category for 2013, Best Newcomer to Road Risk Management.
