SAFETY  \nEXCELLENCE  \nPioneering  \nsafer driving & safer roads  \nFor more than 100 years, the National Safety Council has led the world in efforts to prevent injuries and save lives.  \nNearly 80 million drivers trained  \nThe National Safety Council is the only safety organization to be chartered by Congress and recognized for its leadership in safety programs and advocacy. In 1964, the Council pioneered the country’s first defensive driving course. Since then, NSC has trained nearly 80 million drivers in all 50 states and around the world.  \nThe Council’s ongoing initiatives and training programs educate drivers to make the right decisions to prevent motor vehicle collisionsand traffic violations. These efforts ultimately lead to reduced injuries, fatalities and costs to employers, families and communities.  \nWhat are you doing about driver safety?  \nWhat you do matters – to you and your employees. Keep in mind that all employees are exposed to crash risks. That includes commercial vehicle drivers, field sales and technicians, as well as employees who drive to meetings or run errands as part of their job. Employers bear high costs for injuries in crashes, both on and off the job. By joining forces with the National Safety Council and offering a driver safety program in your workplace, you can help save lives, prevent injuries and reduce costs.  \nThe most dangerous part of your employees’workday is when they’re on the road.  \nMotor vehicle collisions are the leading cause of death and injury in the workplace.  \n[nsc.org/defensive-driving](nsc.org/defensive-driving)  \n (800) 621-7619  \n  The Road to Safety   \n begins here.  \n\\#1 cause of occupational fatalities: vehicle-related crashes  \nThe National Safety Council has been actively working to reduce motor vehicle collisions for more than five decades. We pioneered efforts to reduce traffic crashes, which helps save lives as well as lower costs for companies.  \nNearly 80 million drivers trained  \nNearly 80 million drivers trained since 1964  \nThousands of companies have used NSC Defensive Driving Courses to train their employees. Fortune 100 corporations, independently owned businesses, nonprofit associations and community service agencies all depend on NSC driver safety training to educate their employees and professional drivers.  \nNSC SPOTLIGHTS:   \nLogistiCare is the largest non-emergency medical transportation manager in the country. Each year, we coordinate 69 million trips by developing and overseeing a network of 5,000+ transportation providers. LogistiCare and its contracted providers have enrolled more than 80,000 drivers in the National Safety Council Online Defensive Driving Course (DDC) since 2011. DDC Online helps us elevate the quality of the drivers providing transportation on behalf of our clients. A measureable reduction in driving incidents serves as a true testament to the effectiveness of the defensive driving strategies and techniques presented in the Course.  \nLogistiCare takes great pride in being the industry leader — a reduction in driving incidents means millions of dollars saved, riders are receiving superior service and our transportation providers are  \noffering compliant and SAFE service. Gordon McInnis, Safety Director  \nOmniTrans, the primary public transit provider in the San Bernardino Valley area, transports approximately 16 million passengers each year. Every single OmniTran’s coach operator has taken the NSC Defensive Driving Course – it has been a standard portion of our Student Coach Operator driver safety training and refresher training for decades.  \nNSC sets a high standard in driver safety training and is a major reason our preventable accident rate has decreased from 1.28 preventable accidents per 100,000 miles to an all-time low of.74 preventable accidents per 100,000 miles.  \nNational Safety Council Defensive Driving Courses continue to play an active role in this significant  \nreduction.
