Brake is urging fleet operators to book on to its Fleet Safety Conference, as the event is close to selling out.

The conference will see experts from the world of fleet share best practice in managing road risk on Thursday May 26.

The conference provides an opportunity for fleet professionals to hear from leading experts on key road safety issues. Additionally, best practice presentations will be presented by organisations pioneering fleet safety measures. The conference will cover topical issues including protecting vulnerable road users, engaging drivers with safety, and managing high-risk drivers.

Many speakers include former Brake Fleet Safety Award winners, and there is just two weeks left to enter this year's awards. The deadline is Friday May 20 2016.

The agenda will feature presentations from both public and private sector operators, representing car, van, truck, and mixed vehicle fleets.

Confirmed speakers include:

• Dr Shaun Helman, head of transport psychology at Transport Research Laboratory
• Tracey Fuller, customer engagement manager at Arval
• Alison Moriarty, fleet road risk & compliance manager at Skanksa UK
