Principles of Defensive Driving: SEE, DECIDE, ACT

More than a quarter of all work-related fatalities occur in occupations that require driving, or the transportation of goods, making the need for defensive driving skills clear. To avoid injury, or worse, death, drivers need to understand what defensive driving really means and what unique challenges a Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) driver faces. Even veteran drivers need to avoid becoming complacent.
Join our panel of experts for this complimentary DOT Event in a relaxed talk show format. They'll share how a proactive defensive driver program can help you control the real-world cost and expense of risky driving behaviors and noncompliance. Join the discussion to discover how:
• To effectively train and coach defensive driving skills
• Driver preparation impacts defensive driving
• To nonverbally understand other drivers’ intents
• To look for hazards by scanning the road ahead using mirrors
• Speed and space can assist drivers to drive defensively
• To incorporate winter driving skills into your program
Finally, time will be reserved for a live Q&A session!

Top 5 FAQs on DOT Reasonable Suspicion Testing: Hitting the ‘high’ points

Impaired drivers operating your commercial motor vehicle can cause serious harm to themselves, the general public, and property.
A single, high-profile crash involving a drugged or drunk CDL driver can devastate a motor carrier. Even lesser events, such as roadside inspections citing a drug or alcohol violation can impact the carrier’s safety standing with DOT and result in fines, higher insurance rates, lost customers, and an inability to attract high caliber drivers.
That’s why it is so important that your driver supervisors know how to identify signs of drug use and alcohol misuse. DOT requires that supervisors receive reasonable suspicion training to aid in this role.
Our presentation will tackle some of the more frequently asked questions on DOT reasonable suspicion testing. The webcast:
• Begins with an overview of 49 CFR 382.107 and 382.603, and
• Is followed by five common questions asked by motor carriers.
The questions will be posed in the form of scenarios that you and your peers can respond to using our interactive Group Chat.
And, as with all our webcasts, we will leave time for your questions at the end in a question-and-answer session. Come join the discussion!

Major OSHA and DOT Regulations for the Healthcare Industry

Patient safety — we know it’s a focus area for your hospital, clinic, nursing facility, or medical transport service, and keeping your Joint Commission or other accreditation in check is a priority. That means worker safety and health may not always be top of mind, and applicable transportation safety regulations might be overlooked for 9- to 15-passenger vans or larger vehicle types.
However, consider this … can patient safety efforts succeed without safe healthcare workers and safe transportation of patients? Probably not. Will patients give high satisfaction ratings without these? The answer is likely no. That’s because the hazards faced by healthcare workers and vehicle operators may also impact patients.
The trouble is the OSHA and DOT laws and regulations are not easy to understand and implement. That’s where our 90-minute virtual event can help! We’ll explore:
• Major federal OSHA compliance topics for healthcare, including injury/illness recordkeeping, infectious diseases, hazardous chemicals, slips/trips/falls, patient handling, and workplace violence.
• Major federal DOT compliance topics for healthcare, including the applicability of interstate motor carrier safety regulations, driver training, enforcement, and noncompliance risks.
• And more!
Join us for this online event to learn about OSHA and DOT laws and regulations that affect you and your industry! Register today!
