It's got fuck-all to do with how dangerous the road is. It's about ignoring basic safety instructions.
In this country, from the HSE......
Anyway, haven't had time to watch last nights episode yet but I expect the producers have persuaded them to give Dave a another chance, because he makes good tv

Quote:Managing the risks to employees who drive at work requires more than just compliance with road traffic legislation.
The Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 requires employers to take appropriate steps to ensure the health and safety of their employees and others who may be affected by their activities when at work. This includes the time when they are driving, or riding at work, whether this is in a company or hired vehicle, or in the employees own vehicle.
There will always be risks associated with driving. Although these cannot be completely controlled an employer has a responsibility to take all reasonable steps to manage these risks down to as low a level as reasonably possible in the same way as they would in the workplace.
