The US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) just recently updated their 'most wanted list' for safety improvements. The list identifies the top safety improvements that can be made across all modes of transportation to prevent accidents, minimize injuries, and save lives in the future.
Reducing fatigue-related accidents remains being one of the top ten items and NTSB is calling for a comprehensive approach to combatting fatigue in transportation, focusing on research, education, and training; technology; sleep disorder treatment; hours-of-service regulations; and on and off-duty scheduling policies and practices.
