Safety Sam

Safety Sam Lately there have been far too many stories about crooked driving schools and unsafe drivers on our road.  In the big move lately to rid the trucking industry of quickie budget schools, we sometimes forget that Canada is a long list of excellent driving schools from coast to coast.  Schools that can almost guarantee a good career with a reputable fleet. New and prospective drivers assume that truck driving schools teach you how to drive a big rig.  Unfortunately there is an assumption that if you how to handle a truck with a load on the highway and streets, then, you're good to go. What prospective students may not get is how among top fleets, there is a laser focus on safety. It seems to be one of the areas that the El-Cheapo schools ignore. However, workplace safety not only applies to the trucking industry. I talked to lady who well connected in the transportation industry and works for a company that is all about safety….and not only about trucking. The company is NATT Safety Services.  My guest's name is Samantha Clark. I took the liberty to call her "Safety Sam" because Sam knows safety probably better than anyone. Listen to my conversation with Samantha.
