Highways Driver Training
It is estimated that for every 1 mph reduction in average speed, accident frequency is reduced by 5%. It is therefore clear there is a need to worry about speed because the consequences of driving fast are so severe.
Fleet Driver Training
Where operators actively monitor and manage the fuel used by vehicles, a fleet's fuel consumption can typically be reduced by 10%, with an equivalent cost saving. Use of safe and fuel-efficient driving techniques as part of fuel management will make a major contribution to this fuel saving.
