澳大利亚主管机构强调，未能保持正确瞭望以及未能及早采取避碰行动是造成碰撞的常见因素。
澳大利亚海事安全局(AMSA)发布了第06/2020号《海事通告》，提醒船东、营运人、船长、当值人员和参与船舶航行的其他人员，遵守《1972年国际海上避碰规则公约》(COLREGs)的重要性。针对26年来41起碰撞事件的调查发现，未能保持正确瞭望并及早采取避碰行动是造成碰撞的常见因素，AMSA强调，值班人员需认识到，当班时，任何偏离值守的行为都会对安全产生负面影响。此外，疲劳管理是一种普遍认为能够最大限度减少分心的措施和手段。

Reducing the risk of collisions at sea
Failure to maintain a proper lookout and to take early avoiding action are common contributing factors to collisions, say Australian authorities.
The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) has published Marine Notice 06/2020 reminding vessel owners, operators, masters, watchkeepers, and other personnel involved in the navigation of vessels, of the importance of adhering to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea 1972 (COLREGs). Investigations into 41 collisions over 26 years have identified failure to maintain a proper lookout and to take early avoiding action as common contributing factors to collisions and AMSA emphasises that watchkeepers need to be aware that any distraction from their duties can have a negative impact on safety. Management of fatigue is also highlighted as a recognised way of minimising distraction.
