Remembering Dr. Will Murray
By Janice Sutton
When Dr. Will Murray died early this month, we lost a tireless researcher and advocate for road safety, and a great friend to a broad community of coworkers.
As great as our loss is, his death is devastating to his family and friends in Huddersfield, England. Will was a devoted husband and father to his two sons, and a dedicated and passionate soccer coach.
Of Will, it can be truly said that our pain at his passing is conquered by the joy and honor of knowing him; we never missed an opportunity to spend time with Will when we were visiting the UK. His dedication to road safety sprung in great measure from a genuine interest in ameliorating the unnecessary human loss and suffering caused by collisions.
Ed Dubens, Executive Director of eDriving —where Will was Director of Research— perhaps put it best when he told Fleet News , “Even those [who knew Will] only a short time or interacted with him briefly at a conference came away recognizing the complex and compassionate genius he was.
“Everyone who came in contact with Will always enjoyed every minute they spent with him. His charisma and congeniality were unrivaled and his passion for our industry and saving lives was palpable in every conversation.”

Erin Gilchrist: Staying in the Moment
This fleet professional knows a whole lot about work-life balance - and understanding how to stay in the moment is an important part of that balance.
Trump Says ‘Nobody Really Knows’ if Climate Change is Real
President-elect Donald Trump said Sunday that “nobody really knows” whether climate change is real and that he is “studying” whether the United States should withdraw from the global warming agreement struck in Paris a year ago.
In an interview with “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace, Trump said he’s “very open-minded” on whether climate change is underway but has serious concerns about how President Obama’s efforts to cut carbon emissions have undercut America’s global competitiveness.
“I’m still open-minded. Nobody really knows,” Trump said. “Look, I’m somebody that gets it, and nobody really knows. It’s not something that’s so hard and fast. I do know this: Other countries are eating our lunch.”
