Road Safety Week 2025: Our Commitment to Safer Roads
Last week, EquipSpecs proudly participated in Road Safety Week in New Zealand and Australia, sharing a series of posts across LinkedIn to spotlight a simple but powerful message:
Road safety begins long before a vehicle hits the road — it starts in the workshop.
Over the course of the week, we shared how our products, services, and the technicians who use them contribute to safer roads for all.
🔧 Post 1: Pit Covers That Protect the People Who Keep Us Safe
Our campaign began by focusing on technician safety — a vital part of the road safety chain. We highlighted our range of pit cover systems, which are:
- ✅ Quick to install
- ✅ Engineered for pits up to 46m
- ✅ Fitted with sliding guides according to the characteristics of the pit
These pit covers are fully compliant and trusted in COF lanes and inspection workshops across Australia and New Zealand.
Because road safety isn’t just about drivers — it’s about safeguarding the people who make safe driving possible.
🛑 Post 2: Braking Power That Saves Lives
Midweek, we turned our attention to vehicle performance — specifically, braking.
We showcased the Ryme Worldwide FRU 4 Roller Brake Tester, supplied and installed by EquipSpecs at certified workshops across the region. This system allows technicians to:
- Accurately test braking performance
- Ensure every vehicle meets compliance standards
- Help prevent accidents before they happen
In support of Road Safety Week, we reinforced how brake safety protects not just drivers — but cyclists, pedestrians, and passengers.
🎥 Post 3: Brake Testing in Action
To wrap up the week, we shared a short video showing the Ryme Worldwide FRU 4 Brake Tester in operation, giving our audience a real-world look at this critical tool in use.
This video celebrated the technicians, COF inspectors, and workshop teams who keep fleets roadworthy and compliant.
Road safety isn’t just what happens behind the wheel. It’s built — and tested — in the workshop.
Our Ongoing Commitment
As Road Safety Week concludes, EquipSpecs remains committed to:
- Delivering industry-leading safety equipment
- Supporting technicians with reliable, compliant systems
- Championing the role of the workshop in national road safety efforts
We thank the professionals who work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that every vehicle on the road is fit to drive — and fit to stop.
