After July 20, 2004, new drivers must be trained before they can legally drive; drivers
with less than one year of experience must be trained by Oct. 18, 2004.
To assist fleets in complying with the regulations, efleetmgmt inc., has teamed up with the Maryland Motor Truck Assn. and Jack Burkert, veteran industry safety expert, to produce a training package that will guide fleet trainers and supervisors though the required elements of the entry-level training.
In an easy to open and use format, utilizing PowerPoint slides that are also adaptable to print or transparency use, the program thoroughly covers the mandatory training topics: wellness, fatigue, qualification and the whistle blower provisions in the law.
DOT estimates this is a 10-hour training course, and using the student handbook, instructor manual, slides, suggested lecture points and program generated discussion points, drivers are provided an interesting and informative learning opportunity.
