SafetyFirst’s Customer-Only Web Site Resources
A Green Light to Safety Research, Articles,
Specialty Reports & Training Presentations
Why Do You Pursue Safety?
Is it because over 42,000 people die each year in motor vehicle crashes?
Perhaps someone you love has been or may become involved in
a motor vehicle crash?
Why Do “We” Pursue Safety?• Because we can do more together than
independently of each other’s best efforts.
• Because there are many great ways to reduce the risk drivers face when behind the wheel – Safety Hotlines are only a part of the equation.
• Because we are passionate to try and make a difference in our employee’s and families’ lives.
Safety IS Our Goal• Fleet safety resources are widely available,
but sometimes are focused on non-commercial drivers (ie. teens, personal cars, etc.)
Safety IS Our Goal• SafetyFirst’s goal is “to reduce commercial
vehicle collisions and the costs associated with them”
• To support this goal we research, author and collect valuable articles and training slides – focused on “commercial vehicles” - to help our customers.
Safety IS Our Goal• Since each fleet has unique concerns and
is always pressed for time, we do not ‘flood’ our clients with these articles
However, we have arranged a resource
library on our web site for their benefit.
Access to the Resources• Each hotline client is provided with a unique
ID and password to access our resources, and their company data (derived from our safety hotline process)
• The log in process is simple, and delivers each client to a menu of choices.

Customer Options
Clicking on the title of each section will
take you to a distinct part of our
web site
Customer Options• This presentation will focus on options NOT
related to running specialty reports
• Information on accessing reports is covered in a separate presentation
Ten-Minute Training Topics• The first section we’ll review is a library of
Ten-Minute Training Topics.
• These topical training sessions for drivers have been sent monthly since May 2003.
Ten-Minute Training Topics• The training topics provide an opportunity
to: – refresh all of your drivers on how to avoid
certain types of collisions, and – can be used as an additional support tool for
drivers with repeat complaints.
Ten-Minute Training Topics• Each topic contains a handout for your
drivers and a 8” X 11” mini-poster.
Ten-Minute Training Topics• Some contain a “manager’s supplement”
document to provide additional insights to your supervisors:– Recent news stories
about the topic– Web site resources– Questions they might
hear from drivers
Ten-Minute Training Topics• Recently, we’ve added power point slide
shows, driver handbooks, word searches and other elements to support our client’s efforts to raise safety awareness.
Ten-Minute Training Topics• We are working on ways to translate our
current materials into an online, interactive program with quizzes and recordkeeping.
• This approach could be combined with electronic report returns to further streamline the program.
Ten-Minute Training Topics• Topics include issues such as:
– Drowsy Driving– Pedestrian Collisions– Poor Visibility– Parking Lot Collisions– Crash Reporting– Following Too Closely– Lane Change Collisions– Honoring the Right of Way
Ten-Minute Training Topics• The library is arranged in two parts:
– Administrative notices (release calendars, supplemental information, etc.)
– Training topics arranged by release date (showing a topic title or description, too)

Technical Presentation Library• Next, let’s look at our Technical
Presentation Library…
Technical Presentation Library• Each year, we speak at safety conferences
and expos around the USA.
Technical Presentation Library• When we return from these sessions, we
update our library with our slide shows so that safety managers can access a wide variety of power point slide shows.
• These slide shows can be used as is, or as the basis for your own presentation research.
Technical Presentation Library• The presentations are currently arranged
from oldest to most recent.
• Each section includes the name of the conference where the slides were originally presented, the original presentation date and title.
Technical Presentation Library• To view a slideshow, just click on the title,
and then click “open”
Reference and Support• Next, let’s take a look at our “help” section –
the reference and support document library
Reference and Support• We’ve created a section of reference and
support documents to help clients understand various features of our program.
• Additionally, when you have new staff or supervisors join your firm, it provides training on how the program works.
Reference and Support• This menu works like the others – just click
on a document name to view it.
If you don’t see a topic or issue presented that
you have questions about, call us – we will send you the needed information, and work on getting it added to
the site for future reference.
Fleet Safety Articles• Finally, let’s review our library of fleet safety
“position papers” and published articles.
Fleet Safety Articles• From time to time, we have had fleet safety
articles published in various journals.
• These articles deal with issues like setting up MVR review plans, protecting your documents as evidence following a crash and “negligent entrustment”
Fleet Safety Articles• We’ve posted several of these articles on
our site for your review.
• As additional articles are published by SafetyFirst authors, or are published about SafetyFirst, we’ll add them to the list.
Summary• For now, that’s what we’ve posted for
clients to access.
• Each list grows as we add new:– Training Topics, – Articles and – Reference materials.
Summary• We’d like to hear from you about:
– additional materials you’d like to see, or
– ways to present information in easy-to-use formats.
THANK YOU• Thank you for your commitment to
reducing crashes and the costs associated with them.
Together, we can
save lives
