One of the biggest keys to manage risk when driving in these situations is for the driver to receive training in the vehicle they use for work. ###### Topics: [driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-training) [risk management](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/risk-management) [personal vehicle](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/personal-vehicle) ###### 3 min read ## [What is Behind the Wheel Training for Fleet Drivers?](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/behind-the-wheel-training-for-fleet-drivers) By [Driving Dynamics](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/author/driving-dynamics-thought-leaders) on Nov 11, 2022 9:40:08 AM [![](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/hubfs/Behind_the_Wheel_Training_for_Fleet_Drivers.jpg) ](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/behind-the-wheel-training-for-fleet-drivers) For every fleet, success depends on driver performance. Safe driving practices are essential to fleets running efficiently and effectively. Behind the wheel training is key for drivers, teaching them the best practices for driving a business-owned vehicle. ###### Topics: [driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-training) [fleet risk management](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/fleet-risk-management) ###### 3 min read ## [Are There Driver Improvement Courses for Fleet Drivers?](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/driver-improvement-courses-for-fleet-drivers) By [Driving Dynamics](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/author/driving-dynamics-thought-leaders) on Oct 10, 2022 3:04:24 PM [![](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/hubfs/Driver_Improvement_Courses_for_Fleet_Drivers.jpeg) ](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/driver-improvement-courses-for-fleet-drivers) There are a wide variety of driver improvement courses for fleet drivers that help them improve behind-the-wheel performance. The training helps improve the safety of the drivers themselves and others on the road. It also helps fleets better manage risk, reduce insurance costs and build employee confidence in their abilities. ###### Topics: [driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-training) [virtual fleet training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/virtual-fleet-training) [fleet driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/fleet-driver-training) [fleet drivers](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/fleet-drivers) [driver improvement courses](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-improvement-courses) ###### 3 min read ## [Multitasking While Driving](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/multitasking-while-driving) By [Driving Dynamics](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/author/driving-dynamics-thought-leaders) on Aug 16, 2022 10:03:15 AM [![](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/hubfs/Multitasking_While_Driving.jpeg) ](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/multitasking-while-driving) Multitasking while driving is one of the most dangerous things a driver can do behind the wheel. Why? Because drivers are fooling themselves believing they can multitask. Extensive research has proven that drivers are actually performing separate tasks sequentially and once attention is moved to a non-driving task, risk factors significantly increase. Unfortunately, the result is apparent in crash data, with distracted driving ranked as one of the biggest causes of traffic fatalities every year. ###### Topics: [driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-training) [distracted driving](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/distracted-driving) [distracted driving causes](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/distracted-driving-causes) [distracted driving impacts](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/distracted-driving-impacts) [prevent distracted driving](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/prevent-distracted-driving) [distracted drivers](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/distracted-drivers) ###### 3 min read ## [College-Owned Vehicle Driver Safety](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/college-owned-vehicle-driver-safety) By [Driving Dynamics](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/author/driving-dynamics-thought-leaders) on May 6, 2022 7:37:19 AM [![](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/hubfs/College-Owned%20Vehicle%20Driver%20Safety.jpeg) ](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/college-owned-vehicle-driver-safety) College-owned vehicle driver safety is an issue universities and colleges across the country should take seriously. With a fleet of vehicles used by employees and students in an environment with many inexperienced drivers and distracted pedestrians, academic institutions that offer driver training can create a safer campus and reduce their liability risk for off campus driving. ###### Topics: [driver training](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-training) [driver safety](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/driver-safety) [college-owned vehicles](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/topic/college-owned-vehicles) [All posts](https://www.drivingdynamics.com/driver-safety-news/all)   ##### Our Brands Our Brands ##### Get to know us Get to know us ##### Latest Releases Latest Releases ##### Driver Safety News ### **[Pedestrians, Cars and Carts, Oh My!
