I speak, consult, and teach on road safety—drawing from over three decades of hands-on experience as a professional driver, trainer, and business owner.
My insights come from 33 years behind the wheel across Australia, covering everything from livestock and fuel to milk, steel, and general freight. I’ve worked with countless companies and driven hundreds of individual vehicles—never once involved in a crash. I know road safety not just in theory, but through lived experience.
Driver fatigue is a core focus of mine, and I approach it differently to most. I explore often-overlooked factors like chemical vapours in the cabin, undiagnosed sleep apnoea, and the impact of poor driving posture. I also believe most driver training programs are incomplete—especially when they start in cars, about the physics of momentum and acceleration being the point of control, the where and when, and also don’t reflect the complexities of heavy vehicle operation.
