Defensive Driving
MSEA member companies work hard to create a safe work environment, and as a group we have been successful at reducing injuries and making the oil patch safer. Yet with all this emphasis on safety, one area that is still troublesome is driving safety. We cannot emphasize enough the importance of driving defensively.
To help you raise awareness of defensive driving for your crews who drive the larger vehicles, we are offering Defensive Driving for Large Vehicle Operators. This seminar will provide information that will help your drivers understand the importance of safe vehicle operation and provide reminders of all the little points we already know, but forget to do.
This defensive driving course will cover the following:
- Professional attitude
- Collision avoidance techniques
- Downhill braking/brake system failure
- Recognizing and anticipating hazards
- Human factors that contribute to collisions
- The five elements of the safe driving
- Off-highway driving
- Emergency equipment
- Skid avoidance/recovery
- Steps to take following an accident
