Safe Driver Program - Classroom Only

The Safe Driver Program provides the information employees need to drive cars, vans, and small trucks safely, both on and off the job. Most employees travel the roads every day... in cars, vans or trucks... many of them on company business. Each year, traffic collisions claim over 30,000 lives and cause more than a million serious injuries. In fact, motor vehicle crashes are the number one cause of death on the job. The Safe Driver Program includes information on inspecting the vehicle, adjusting seats, mirrors and other equipment, wearing seat belts mental preparation and concentration, creating a "safety cushion" around your vehicle, passing another vehicle, driving at night, adverse weather conditions, skidding and hydroplaning, what to do in case of a collision, and more. The Program includes Lecture, Video, Employee Handouts, Employee Quiz, and Employee Training Certificates.
