Our CompanyDownload Our Company Profile

In 1952, Harold Smith established the Smith System Driver Improvement Institute, the nation's first professional driver training company. He understood that most collisions are preventable if the right driving habits are learned, practiced and applied consistently. Since then, hundreds of thousands of drivers throughout the world have benefited from the program he developed.

Today at Smith System, our instructors continue to study and master techniques that are essential to understanding driver behavior. With a focus on collision prevention through hands-on training, the proven Smith System concepts help fleet drivers to see, think and react to driving challenges— no matter where they travel or what types of vehicles they operate.

Smith System delivers behind-the-wheel instruction to more than 20,000 fleet drivers each year. We have presented our programs in 54 countries and in 24 languages around the world. In the past decade, we have provided services to more than half of the current Fortune 500 fleets.

In addition to on-road training and an extensive video and DVD library, Smith System offers web-based education and fleet monitoring. With more than 50 years of proven results, we are proud to be the only company in the industry that guarantees the quality of our training.

All of us believe that working with our fleet customers is making a difference in preventing loss of life from traffic collisions and making the roads safer for everyone.
