Driver Safety |
|
Safety is a number one priority for us. And, we know how important safety is to you. Especially when our drivers are transporting your cargo. The price tag on accidents includes more than health risk and money. It affects the public opinion of your company.
In order to assure the safest standards, we handpick our drivers through an intensive recruiting process, offer in-depth training programs and consistently run internal safety programs.

Training
|
|
|
After we hire the best available drivers, we put them through a rigorous training program to ensure they are prepared for the road ahead.
At Classic Transport, we have two certified (through National Safety Council) Safety Driver Instructors on staff.
Additionally, we have a Loss Control Board. The Board meets once a month to review claims and the drivers involved in accidents to make certain we retain only the safest drivers.

Programs

|
|
We also conduct several awareness campaigns throughout the year. The objective of these campaigns is to continuously remind drivers of ongoing safety issues.
