Please complete one or both versions of the survey based on your experience. While geared for drivers, industry participation is welcome. Responses are anonymous.

Operation Safe Driver Week is here. As a logistics manager, you can help your drivers stay safe and avoid tickets! Here are some simple tips: 🚦 1. Speeding is a big cause of accidents. Remind your drivers to pay attention to the speed limit and stick to it. 2. Distracted driving means doing anything that takes your eyes off the road, like texting, talking on the phone, or eating. Remind your drivers that it's against the law and very dangerous. 3. Long hours on the road make drivers tired, and tired drivers can cause accidents. Make sure your drivers take breaks every few hours to rest. 4. Trucks need to be in good working condition to keep everyone safe. Make sure your trucks are checked regularly and fixed if anything is wrong. 5. Tell your drivers what you expect when it comes to safety. Give them training and information so they can stay safe on the road. By following these tips, you can help your drivers stay safe during Operation Safe Driver Week and all year round! #OperationSafeDriverWeek #DriverSafety #StaySafe #TruckSafety #LogisticsLife #SafeDrivingTips #SpeedLimit #NoDistractedDriving #RestAndDrive #VehicleMaintenance #SafetyTraining #TruckingCommunity #LogisticsManager #SafeRoads
