Fleet Safety

Fleet Safety

A growing area of concern for organisations is the safety of their employees whilst on the road.

Training drivers in defensive driving techniques is an investment that will repay itself in dividends, as the principles improve driving ability and help avoid accidents, which in turn contribute to :

* Cheaper insurance premiums
* Lower accident repair costs
* Less time lost to maintenance and repair of vehicles
* Savings on fuel, tyres and spares
* An improved company image from drivers - greater care and courtesy.

Transport Training Services can offer a 2 stage solution involving :

In-Vehicle Driver Risk Assessment

Aimed at all drivers, particularly those deemed to be high risk (e.g. high annual mileage, poor accident records or young drivers).
Also suitable for organisations wishing to access the skills of new drivers or to reassess competence following an incident.

The course is available in-company, where we will go to your premises to undertake the risk assessments or alternatively at our training centre at Nutt's Corner.

Defensive Driver Training

Having assessed the risk posed by drivers within the organisation, managers are in an informed position to ensure that any training undertaken is both specific and targeted.

Along with the principles of defensive driving, drivers will be taught a systematic approach to hazards and techniques to minimize risk in the driving environment. The principles will then be applied to the three main driving environments - town, country and motorway.
