Employees who drive as part of their job face daily roadway risks, making safe driving practices an important component of an organization's overall risk management efforts. Maintaining safe following distances, remaining alert to changing traffic conditions, avoiding distractions, and anticipating sudden stops can help reduce the likelihood of an accident.
