- Snowplow Safety -
METROGARD’s 45-minute interactive presentation
is developed on the success of the well-known
defensive driving based concepts introduced by the National Safety Council.
This training module is geared specifically for public works
operations.
The “coaching series” is intended to offer
experienced drivers & maintenance equipment operators an opportunity to gain
additional insight to enhance their defensive driving knowledge when operating
with a plow.
The main thrust is to offer
tips and concepts of defensive driving to remind drivers to use when
encountering a potential accident.
The module also assists in
introducing new techniques that will assist your drivers to “fine-tune” their
respective collision-prevention skills.
