Your fleet can only control what’s going on behind the wheel of their vehicle. Risky driving behavior on the road is avoidable. 

A comprehensive safety program includes what happens on the road. Creating a safety playbook can reassure your drivers that they are your top priority. Distractions behind the wheel include eating, changing the radio, and talking to another passenger. When you consider that with some aggressive driving behaviors, such as blocking and tailgating, your risks skyrocket. 

In four steps you can: 

• Establish the foundation for a safety-first culture
• Continually reinforce safety
• Publicly monitor your workers’ driving records and safety trends
• Recognize and reward good and improved performance
