Coming Next: CVSA Operation Safe Driver

 

With this knowledge, it is critical to be prepared for the upcoming CVSA Operation Safe Driver Week from July 15-21 in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Similar to International Roadcheck Week, enforcers will be focusing on driver behaviors including distracted driving, texting, failure to use a seatbelt, following too closely, improper lane change and failure to obey traffic control devices. Last year, 39,000 citations and warnings were issued to truck drivers. 

 

Schneider takes our core value of Safety First and Always seriously and equips and empowers our drivers to do their jobs safely every day. We do this by:

  • Prohibiting cell phone use while driving
  • Providing in-cab technology to reduce driver distraction, like text-to-voice navigation and messaging
  • Collision mitigation systems to limit/monitor speed, distance and deceleration, recorders to alert drivers of a potential crash
  • Sleep apnea screening to ensure alert driving
