Entering its 11th year, Fleet Safety Conference returns to an in-person format as part of the Fleet Forward Conference Nov. 9-11 in Santa Clara, California.

Brought to you by the publishers of Automotive Fleet, Heavy Duty Trucking, and Work Truck, Fleet Safety Conference (FSC) is designed specifically for fleet, risk, and safety professionals with the goal to reduce driver distraction, limit fleet liability, and enhance safety culture overall.

As part of a combined agenda, the in-person FSC will convene an opening and closing keynote as general sessions. Concurrent sessions will take place along with Fleet Forward Conference sessions. Attendees will pay one registration fee to access both events.

“We're excited to be back together in person!" said Chris Brown, conference chair. "The mission of FSC remains: To offer expert insights from leaders in fleet safety who will share cutting-edge education to create safer fleets. Combining with FFC only enhances this mission. Attendees will have multiple seminar choices and can experience hands-on safety demos at the conference.”

The 2022 FSC and FFC agenda also includes an expanded footprint for attendees to experience new vehicles, mingle with product experts, and experience safety technologies behind the wheel in a large, outdoor interactive space.

Safety Awards

The Fleet Safety Conference also brings back two awards presentations to in-person formats.

In conjunction with Automotive Fleet, the American Automotive Leasing Association (AALA) will present the Fleet Safety Award to a fleet or risk manager whose leadership and innovation have enhanced the safety of fleet drivers and the general public.
