Driving Safety

The Driving Safety course is an interactive online training program that discusses the hazards that can be encountered on the road and the safe practices that employees can use to avoid them. The course is provided in partnership with MARCOM, a top-rated safety and compliance training content provider.

Each year motor vehicle accidents claim more than two million lives worldwide and result in tens of millions of serious injuries. Motor vehicle accidents are the number one cause of death on the job. Employees can prevent these incidents if they understand how to deal with the hazards they encounter on the road, whether they result from mechanical problems, bad weather, darkness, distraction, other drivers, or even themselves.

Areas covered in the course include preparing to drive safely, safe driving principles for all drivers, driving safely when sharing the road with trucks and buses, staying safe when driving at night and in inclement weather, avoiding distractions when driving, the dangers of road rage, what to do if a driving emergency arises, and more.

The course uses a combination of audio, full-motion video, text, and colorful graphics. It is divided into logical sections so information is easily understood and retained. The course is 100% online and accessible on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones.
