Mike Sheldrick and I had a near-tragic accident last week, and his instantaneous reaction proved the power of the “One-Second Advantage.” Art Liggio, whose column It’s That Time of Year offers tips on coping with holiday-season travel, avers that “90 percent of all traffic crashes can be avoided when the driver has just one more second to react and knows what to do with that additional second.”
Zendrive offers a free eBook Winning in the Era of Distracted Driving – a guide for fleet managers to deal with this pernicious behavior, which they say is 100 times worse than we thought!
Don’t miss Mark Boada’s engaging recap of the recent 2018 NETS Conference. He says there is a sea-change in attitudes toward fleet crashes.
Our FMW team wishes our readers a splendid and safe Thanksgiving holiday!
