 A recent study of total economic costs in Europe found wide variations, in part due to differing definitions, methods and data sets. By Andrew Boada, Editor at Large Building a business case for new fleet safety initiatives hinges on a single piece of data: the cost of the average crash to employers. In the U.S., fleet managers have a ready-made number: as of 2015, it’s $24,057. But what about the rest of the world? As far as Fleet Management Weekly has been able to determine, no such number exists for any other country. What we have found, however, is a 2016 study on the total economic costs of all traffic accidents for 31 countries in the European Union and Western Europe. While a good start, the authors admit that there’s such variation in how each of the countries calculates the cost of accidents and defines injuries that their numbers aren’t fully comparable.

If the entrusted individual has an accident, the injured party has the right to bring a case against the individual’s employer. In order to find fault with the employer, all the plaintiff needs to show is: READ MORE |
