Safety Orientation
A trucking safety plan should contain a robust safety orientation for all drivers. This section covers road safety and defensive driving techniques. How to prevent accidents as well as preventive maintenance for your vehicle should also be covered. Avoiding distractions and maintaining the proper rest is also vital for the safety orientation section of your trucking safety plan. All new drivers should be required to complete this program before driving, and veteran truckers should receive an update every year, with mandatory attendance required.
