Heavy Motor Insurance Advice

 

The primary cause of accidents is driver error.

Proper management of drivers for this occupation may include:

  • An accurate job description of each position. The policy should set out what the company expects of the employee, the checks and maintenance the employee is responsible for and the employee’s responsibility in regard to the servicing of the vehicle. It should include the procedures in the event of an accident, what is to be done and to whom it is to be reported
  • Driver selection and training. The initial application should give details of the applicant’s
  • employment record
  • general experience particularly with the class of vehicle being considered; and
  • driving record including any convictions and accidents.

This information needs to be checked and verified.

Organizations will develop their own standards and will plan an appropriate training program for all employees including experienced drivers. The program could cover:

  • an overview of the job, the company’s objectives and the driver’s role in those objectives
  • instruction in the care and maintenance of the vehicle
  • safe driving practices including the company’s rules and regulations as well as the road rules
  • accident and breakdown procedures; and
  • an explanation of the routes, schedules and the necessary paperwork.
  • advanced and defensive driving courses
  • A pre-employment medical check
  • Driving/aptitude tests. The range of driving tests will vary according to the organization and the type of work but could include an
  • intelligence and aptitude test
  • traffic and driving knowledge test
  • vision test
  • hearing test; and
  • reaction-time test
  • Supervision - it is the role of the supervisor to ensure that the company rules and procedures, as set down in the policy, are followed. A motor fleet’s radio communication enables the supervisor to deal promptly with any problems that might arise. Mechanical devices such as tachometers assist the supervisor by recording both the time and the speed of the vehicle. From this a check can be made on the drivers over one or a number of days
  • Road patrol - this involves supervisors in cars checking to see that a vehicle is following company and legal rules and laws. In the event of an accident the supervisor can assist the driver and obtain relevant details
  • Incentive programs to encourage good driving. It gives public recognition by the company of good driving habits and a tangible reward.
