Description: Most companies that own and operate vehicles are not covered by the Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. A company should recognize whether or not it is required to follow the DOT standards based upon the type of equipment it possesses. This webcast provides guidance on how to develop a Vehicle Safety program for those companies that need not follow DOT standards.
How can a company develop a meaningful vehicle safety program for its fleet? The answer can be found in the American National Standard Institute (ANSI) Z15.1 Safe Practices for Motor Vehicle Operations guidelines. This webcast will review the key features of this voluntary consensus standard which includes suggestions regarding overall fleet program development, selection of drivers, equipment, maintenance and the handling and investigation of accidents.
