Australian Automotive Industry Urges Motorists to Upgrade Vehicle Hygiene Practices

COVID 19 Car cleaningAustralian motoring industry peak body, the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI), has urged drivers to upgrade vehicle hygiene practices to help minimise the risk of spreading COVID-19.

In addition to following all Government hygiene protocols1, below are some measures which may further reduce the spread of the disease.

FCAI Chief Executive Tony Weber said taking these simple measures may help stem the rising tide of infections without impacting mobility.

“As social distancing measures limit transportation options, Australians are looking to their cars as a more isolated means to conduct essential travel, and in some cases are even receiving vital infection screening from their vehicle.

“Maintaining hygiene can assist in preventing transmission. It is just as important as cleaning any other surface. Cars should be sanitised every time they are entered or exited.

“With common sense and consistency, we can help to limit the spread of coronavirus and mitigate the impact of disrupting essential mobility,” Mr Weber said.
