"During heatwaves, everyday life tends to feel more difficult than on an
average day. Travel and daily movement are no exception.
But while most of us know rain, fog and storms can make driving conditions
challenging, not many people realise heat also changes transport risk.
In particular, research evidence consistently suggests roads, trips and daily
commutes can become more dangerous on very hot days compared with an average
day.
The key questions are how much more dangerous, who is most affected, whether
the risk is short-lived or lingers and how this information can be used to
better manage road safety during extreme heat."
