“…This is supported by Suman et al (2022), who explained that properly maintained vehicles are less likely to experience mechanical failure or breakdown, thereby reducing the risk of accidents caused by sudden malfunctions. Well-maintained brakes, tires, steering systems and lights improve handling, stability and overall vehicle performance (Huang et al, 2023). Modern vehicles are equipped with various safety systems such as anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic stability control (ESC), airbags and traction control.…”

“…Appropriate tire inflation, regular rotation and tread depth checks contribute to optimal traction, improved handling and shorter braking distance. Well-maintained tires provide a better grip on wet or slippery roads, thereby reducing the risk of skidding and loss of control (Huang et al, 2023). Firms can promptly identify faults when vehicles are regularly maintained, thereby preventing accidents caused by vehicle-related failures.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of institutional dynamics on road accidents and whether this relationship is moderated by information and communication technology (ICT).Design/methodology/approachThe study adopted a quantitative approach with 133 respondents. Research hypotheses were tested in AMOS version 21. In addition, moderated regression analysis was used to test the moderating role of ICT on the relationship between institutional dynamics and road accidents.FindingsThe results show that vehicle maintenance, policy enforcement, safety culture, driver training and driver management positively influence road accidents. Moreover, the study established that ICT moderates the relationship between institutional dynamics and road accidents.Practical implicationsThe results of this study serve as a practical guideline for policymakers in the road haulage sector. Managers may gain insights on how to design effective interventions to reduce road accidents.Originality/valueThis research contributes to the existing body of knowledge by exploring previously unexplored moderating paths in the relationship between institutional dynamics and road accidents. By highlighting the moderating role of ICT, the study sheds new light on the institutional dynamics that influence road accidents in the context of road haulage companies.
