The seminars are aimed at helping fleets comply with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations, National Safety Code in Canada, and the FMCSA Compliance, Safety and Accountability program.

Many aspects of commercial truck operation are covered including: applicability of federal and state safety regulations, driver qualifications, hours of service and logs, drug and alcohol testing regulations, and vehicle maintenance and inspections. This seminar provides a step by-step approach to help attendees maintain a safe fleet by reducing violations and accidents, and controlling liability exposures.

It includes up to date information to keep private truck fleet managers informed about current and proposed motor carrier regulations that affect their operations and provide important risk control techniques to maintain insurability and control losses. Attendees also learn how to enhance their safety programs above and beyond regulatory requirements.

All seminar attendees receive the Idealease Guide to Transportation Safety and Compliance, a manual that assists fleet managers with safety and compliance documentation, the Idealease Pre- and Post-Trip Inspection DVD for driver education, and a subscription to the Idealease Safety Bulletin, a weekly safety and compliance e-mail publication.
