Description:
Is safe driving the No. 1 priority for your employees when they are behind the wheel of your company vehicles? Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of on-the-job deaths--and driving distractions are the leading cause of motor vehicle accidents. Today's drivers face many risks if their attention is diverted, whether it's interacting with the dispatch service or reading a map or talking on a cell phone or eating a quick lunch. Safe driving is a complex task that requires full attention.
Learning Outcomes: This presentation addresses problems associated with distracted driving and offers solutions. After all, your vehicles are moving billboards for your business.
