So, you are heading to an important meeting or event and would like to prepare yourself mentally, review documents, eat a snack, or simply relax before arriving. This should be an easily attainable goal if you are in a chauffeured driven vehicle right? Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case. Drivers that have limited to no safe driver training allow their bad habits get the better of them on the road and transport you from location to location like a package or product out for delivery.

Taking the proper steps to avoid a poor and potentially unsafe experience is essential. That’s why many companies look towards techniques and methods that educate drivers and give them a more thorough awareness of the intricate nature of operating a vehicle. One of the more popular methods is Smith System training.

In 1952, Harold Smith established the Smith System Driver Improvement Institute, the nation’s first professional driver training company.  He understood that most collisions are preventable if the right driving habits are learned, practiced and applied consistently.  Since then, millions of drivers throughout the world have benefited from the program he developed.

Today, Smith System® is the leading provider of collision avoidance driver training. Their instructors continue to study and master techniques that are essential to understanding driver behavior. With a focus on collision prevention through hands-on training, the proven Smith System concepts help fleet drivers to See, Think and React to driving challenges — no matter where they drive or what type of vehicle they operate.
