Good morning and Happy Friday! 🚛 🌅
As we kick off the “weekend” (as most know the weekend is never near in logistics), I want to take a moment to acknowledge the incredible responsibility and skill that comes with being a truck driver. It's not just about getting from point A to point B; it's about ensuring the safety of everyone on the road. Unfortunately, in today's landscape, we're seeing an increase in inexperienced drivers behind the wheel.
Let's start a conversation about the importance of experience, training, and dedication in the trucking industry. Together, we can work towards safer roads for all.

Bobby Shemmans , Director of Health, Safety, Security, and Environment for Road Freight in Africa at DP World,, said it best last night at the Fleet Safety Awards: “Road safety should not be a competitive advantage.”
He’s absolutely right. When organisations collaborate—setting aside competition—to focus on a shared cause, the ripple effect can be extraordinary. Upholding the values of good corporate citizenship and sharing impactful information must take precedence over the pursuit of competitive edge.
The SaferStops Association embodies this vision. To improve road safety, we need industry-wide support to innovate, map, and enhance truck stops. These efforts will better support truck drivers, reduce fatigue, and ultimately improve safety outcomes.
Together, we can make a meaningful difference. Let’s align behind this vital mission and prioritise road safety for all. Santam BusinessHollard InsuranceEngenAstron Energy (Pty) Ltd.SasolPowerfleetCtrack

This evening, I had the privilege of attending the Fleet Safety Awards, graciously invited by Eugene Herbert. It was an privelage to collaborate with the MasterDrive RSA team in selecting the winner for the Most Improved Truck Stop Award, with the SaferStops Association proudly partnering in this prestigious event.
The highlight of the evening was presenting the Fleet Safety Award for the Most Improved Truck Stop to Charlene Douglas from the Vaal Truck Inn.
This remarkable father-and-daughter team has created a true oasis for drivers—a place where they can rest and rejuvenate. Their dedication to improving conditions for the drivers on the N3 is inspiring, and I am so proud to celebrate their achievements. Well done, Charlene and the Vaal Truck Inn team! You deserve the recognition as being a SaferStops recognized and verified truck stop. Santam Business#FleetSafetyAwards#SaferStops#SaferStopsSaferLives

Just want to say thank you on National Truck Driver Appreciation Week!
Drivers have a substantial impact on fleet profitability, influencing factors like fuel economy and safety. Investing in positive relationships with drivers translates into better performance, from more efficient fuel use to fewer accidents. When drivers feel genuinely valued and appreciated, they are more likely to be engaged and committed to their role, which, in turn, benefits the entire organization.
