Fatigue is a factor in an estimated 20% of road crashes, and people who drive for work are overrepresented in crash statistics.

Whether you drive for work or simply to get around, we all need to manage fatigue so we don’t end up driving tired.

That’s why the AAA has produced the Managing Fatigue for the Long-Haul program.

📈 Road deaths in Australia are still rising — but we still don’t know why.

In the 12 months to 30 April, 1,333 people died. That's 3.5% higher than in the previous corresponding period.

Last week, the Federal Government announced new funding for road safety research. The AAA looks forward to more details on the data-driven approach that the Government intends to fund, and to working with them to reverse the trend.

The AAA welcomes first steps on road safety and Real-World Testing in the 2026–27 Budget — but funding cuts and missing tax reform mean motorists are still paying the price.

Budget at a glance:
✅ Real-World Testing of light vehicles funded for another year
✅ Road safety programs boosted
✅ Long-overdue investment in fuel security

❌ $3.8 billion cut to road investment funding
❌ Only 70% of fuel excise reinvested in the transport network over the next four years
❌ No plan for sustainable road funding reform

📊 New data reveals a continuing rise in Australian road deaths - the 34th consecutive month that the rolling 12-month toll has increased.

With no clear reason why, the 2026–27 Federal Budget must fund a pilot no-blame investigation into road deaths.

We can't fix what we won't properly examine.
