Trucking safety

[Arnold111]

Hello,

I thought I would put some useful information here.

Many a time we hear in the news of truck accidents. Well, partly it's a heavy job and partly our own careless.  One of my colleagues had an accident couple of months back. He lost control of his truck and deviated from the highway. Luckily, no one got hurt. It happened while he has going to take something from the side seat. A few seconds away from the sight and he came too close to the side guard.  

After that, our fleet had sessions on road safety and awareness classes which brought me to this blog on common distractions for truck drivers. I thought I will share it here. http://eagleigps.com/common-driver-distractions-that-lead-to-accidents/ . You might know these. But reading it over can remind you again.  

If you have any helpful blogs or articles like this, please be free to share it here. 

Safe trucking gentlemen.
