InsTRUCKta! Virtual Reality road safety lessons with Rob Sharpe
Manage episode 381418453 series 3319164
The number of trucks on WA roads is set to double within the decade and triple by 2050. In fact we'd all come to a stop if it wasn’t for the work of our amazing truck drivers carting everything from milk to machinery across our vast state.
So it’s really important as drivers that we know how to share our roads safely with trucks.
Rob Sharpe of Transafe and InsTRUCKta! has traversed more than 1.4 million kms as a truckie and he’s had a birds eye view of more than his fair share of close calls and crazy risk taking, by cars trying to squeeze their way ahead of a truck.
So it’s no wonder that he is a huge advocate for road safety.
Transafe WA is a not for profit organisation and Instrucka is its big purple semi-trailer decked out with virtual reality simulations and engaging tools to teach young and old how to interact safely with trucks.

My Warm Table, translated into Italian is Tavola Calda. These were the words my Papa used to describe a table of good friends, good food and good conversation. I always aim to create a tavola calda in my life and I hope this podcast encourages you to do so too!
