CMV DRIVER SAFETY TRAINING - MANAGING DISTRACTIONS

PHYSICAL DISTRACTIONS

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

 

“A physical distraction is anything that triggers you to take at least one hand off the wheel.

It could be anything from changing the radio station, lowering the volume, answering a call, sending a text, or even something as simple as grabbing your cup of coffee on route to your next job.

We are all guilty of being physically distracted when driving, however it is crucial to remember that these distractions can all lead to potential accidents if not managed appropriately.”
