Drivefleet offers catalogue of web-based driver training courses that engages users in an interactive, two-way dialogue to promote knowledge retention and encourage more thoughtful, proactive drivers, according to ARI
The modules “are convenient and easy to access, as well as intuitive to use, and offer users the opportunity to apply the lessons learned to ‘real world’ driving situations,” ARI said in a release.
Courses range from defensive driving practices and preventing distracted driving to eco-driving techniques, and are available for every kind of fleet, from cars and vans to light and medium duty trucks.
