About this course

Australia has some of the harshest weather extremes in the world – and it has the potential to significantly affect safety on our roads. This webinar will consider the contribution that various kinds of adverse weather can make to road crashes. Wind, extreme heat and intensive rainfall events all have the potential to increase the risk faced by the traveling public, and their influence will be discussed. A selection of risk mitigation measures will also be introduced. Insights into the effects of less common adverse weather such as frost, ice and snow will also be touched upon to provide a comprehensive coverage.
