Driving Dynamics recently introduced a behind-the-wheel training program for backing and parking tactics for utility and service fleets. The program includes online, classroom and hands-on training for each driver.
“In consulting with service and utility fleets, we became aware that backing and parking is one of their biggest pain points and an inordinate amount of incidents occur here,” said Tom Harley, executive vice president of training services. “Multiple stops each day contribute to this factor, but fleets are also experiencing a rising severity rate related to these backing and parking incidents. Our immersive instructional design methodology which includes online, classroom and hands-on training for each driver helps them quickly become proficient in safety techniques and hazard recognition to avoid these problems.”
