Drivers
don’t think solely about their driving every moment they are behind
the wheel. Experienced drivers rely on habits they have developed over
time to help them navigate their driving world.
Changing driving habits is no easy task. In order
to change a habit, it is first necessary to be conscious of what you
are doing and how you are doing it. Drivers may require assistance recognizing
the changes they need to make. Our training programs are designed to
make drivers aware of faulty driving habits so that they can begin to
change them. We have created the Classroom Safety Series to help reinforce
your training investment and assist your drivers in their efforts to
change habits.
This series provides your meeting leaders with a
short, powerful message on specific safety topics that challenge fleets
every day.
Each Meeting
includes Visual Support with a PowerPoint Presentation;
this same CD contains files for Transparencies,
Presentation Notes, Leader Guide, Quiz, and the Answer
Key. A Video production is offered as
VHS or DVD, an Arrive Alive Brochure as a handout for
the driver’s future reference is also included. This growing list
of hot Safety Focus Meetings topics includes:

| Proper
Positioning in Traffic
The keys to safe
lane change and merging
Space is a valuable commodity wherever you
find it. On the road it
can be the single ingredient that keeps you safe and free from
danger.
Intelligent vehicle positioning, while moving in the traffic flow
especially when changing lanes and merging can reduce risk and
the
angry calls you may be receiving from aggravated motorists.

| The
Keys to Proper Following Distance
Proper use of The Smith 5 Keys is dependent
on this knowledge
No single element is more important to safe
driving than adequate following distance. Yet the mere suggestion
of maintaining space in front of the vehicle invites ridicule
and rejection from most drivers, particularly those whose jobs
are regulated by time constraints.
This presentation clearly and effectively addresses the concern
of lost time while emphasizing the danger inherent with insufficient
space in
front of their vehicle.

an Intersection Collision
Solid advice for navigating the most
dangerous place on the road
For a driver an intersection is one of the
most dangerous places on earth. Over half of our clients' collisions
occur in or around intersections. This presentation explores the
many subtle threats inherent in such commonplace acts as turning,
braking, signaling, lane changing and evaluating pedestrian activity.
Simple, common sense strategies are explained to help drivers
dramatically reduce risks at intersections.

most common collision
Statistically, the average driver spends a

incidents are at the top of their reportable and avoidable incidents.
Through proper use of The Smith 5 Keys, drivers will have the
knowledge necessary to turn backing collisions into rare events.
Quality information and student participation are the benchmarks
