Defensive Driving for CMV Drivers: Look
More than a quarter of all work-related fatalities occur in occupations that require driving, or the transportation of goods, making the need for defensive driving skills clear. In order to avoid injury, or worse, death, drivers need to understand what defensive driving really means and what unique challenges a Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) driver faces... even for veteran drivers.
Defensive driving involves intentionally driving in such a way as to reduce the risk of an accident. After completing this defensive driving course, learners will be able to demonstrate how to look for hazards by scanning the road ahead and using their mirrors.
