ARRB road safety expert Tia Gaffney joined ABC Radio's Gavin McGrath to discuss why COVID-19 restrictions did not reduce fatal road crashes in regional Victoria.

ABC Radio's Gavin McGrath hosted ARRB Victorian Road Safety Lead Tia Gaffney on the Mornings program in November 2020.

They discussed a recent report from the Australia and New Zealand Driverless Vehicle Initiative (ADVI), using ARRB research, which surprisingly showed that COVID-19 movement restrictions had not reduced the amount of fatal road crashes in regional Victoria.
