At NTI we are committed to improving safety for all road users. The company has been a Foundation Sponsor of the Australian Trucking Association since 1990 and, since 2008, as published a series of studies into the latest trends and causes of serious truck accidents via its National Truck Accident Research Centre.

Truck Assist: Powered by NTI

Being stranded on the side of the road can be a costly inconvenience for truck operators who rely on their vehicle for their livelihood. That’s why Truck Assist roadside was established with manufacturers to provide a 24-hour roadside assistance service. Our service has been the market leader in heavy vehicle roadside assistance since it began operating in 2006.

Part of NTI’s award winning claims solution has been actively engaging with manufacturers through our parts and repairs team as well as with the wider community. The relationships we have developed have led to the launch of initiatives such as Accident Assist and Livestock Assist. Combining our attitude to engagement and our existing infrastructure, we first developed the conceptual idea of a roadside product that is tailored to suit trucks – both large and small.

These values are:
