Driver Fatigue

Fatigue significantly hinders a driver's capability to safely maneuver a large truck or assorted equipment, leading to accidents, damage to vehicles and property, injuries, and even fatalities.

Driver Fatigue

COURSE OVERVIEW

The allure of higher earnings from longer hauls is encouraging companies to press for more hours on the road and manipulate logbooks to hide hours that exceed the legal service limits. The result of this practice is a serious issue – drivers combating fatigue and drowsiness while on the road.

Driver Fatigue substantially degrades a driver’s capacity to securely control a large truck or varying types of machinery. This can result in accidents that inflict damage to vehicles and property, cause injuries, and even result in fatalities. Remember, fatigue isn’t always a byproduct of excessive hours and prolonged time on the road.
