NAFA Webinar Focuses On The Best Practices For Improving Driver Behavior

PRINCETON, NJ, July 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) Fuel prices are always fluctuating. Crashes are always of concern. Companies are looking for ways of addressing both and the key appears to be in the driver's seat. NAFA Fleet Management Association gets to the root of the problem and the solution -- the role of the driver -- in "Improving Driver Behavior and The Role of Change Management" on Wednesday, July 25 from 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) as part of the Association's 2012 Webinar Series.

Did you know that the fleets with the safest, most efficient drivers spend less on fuel and crash costs and have reduced emissions? Since driver behavior impacts fleet crash rates, fuel consumption, and wear and tear on the vehicles, collectively drivers represent the single biggest factor in a safe, productive, and efficient fleet operation. This webinar will offer tips and advice on how to encourage your drivers to change their behavior so that better driving becomes the norm.

NAFA webinars are available for free for NAFA Members as an exclusive membership benefit and open to non-members for $25.00. The July 25 webinar features Dondi Dismer, Director of Sales Engineering with GreenRoad Technologies, in an hour-long discussion focusing on what the driver brings to their companies and organizations, and how improving driver behavior can be the most proactive step an administrator can make.
