Smith System, a professional driver training company, announced the availability of its Incident Review Course, a two-day course that teaches fleet managers and supervisors how to assess traffic incidents and counsel drivers on incident prevention. Using the Smith System "Five Keys to Space Cushion Driving," the course also teaches the communications skills needed to counsel drivers on their specific driving habits and reinforce driver training, says the company. "To prevent future incidents, fleet supervisors need to instruct and advise drivers appropriately," said Tony Douglas, president of Smith System. "A poorly handled judgment on how to prevent a traffic collision can damage morale, expose your organization to liability and impact support for your safety initiatives." With both classroom and on-road instruction, the two-day session includes: Information to help develop policies and standards for Incident Review Committees, communications skills on how to counsel drivers without hurting morale, counseling techniques to help drivers grasp their mistakes and understand the changes necessary to avoid a repeat incident, and opportunities for each student to analyze common crashes. For a full schedule of classes and locations, or to enroll, call Smith System at 800-777-7648.
