The group has decided to offer its employees tips on exercising on the road, eating well and the best seating positions - as part of their initial training.

Spokesman Charles Engelaar commented: "Since there is a strong link between food and traffic safety, we felt that it was important to put health firmly on the agenda."

Meanwhile, light commercial vehicle drivers in the UK may want to see if a change of diet makes them feel more alert at the wheel.
