How many people are killed while driving at work?

At least 300 of the 1,200 drivers killed on Britain's roads every year are driving while at work, according to TUC estimates. The TUC uses official road traffic data to show that more people die at the wheel of their company car, van or lorry than at their workplace.

According to the Health and Safety Commission (HSC), some 249 employed and self-employed workers were fatally injured at work in 2000/2001.
