The unit will begin with an online lesson dealing with the principles and procedures for driving without distractions. Driver distraction is the diversion of attention from activities critical for safe driving to a competing activity. Driver distraction increases your risk of getting into a crash.
Distractions can come from both inside and outside of your truck cab. Distractions inside of your cab can include dialing cell phones, texting, using dispatching devices, eating, reading, or adjusting the radio. Distractions outside of your cab can include looking at a passing building, billboard, or person. One way to think about distraction is to ask yourself if something is drawing your attention and taking your eyes away from the road ahead of you. If the answer is "yes," it is probably a distraction.
Keeping your mind on the task and safe operation of the CMV.

"Lol, he was great and the first subject to go through our new online Integrity Test too. I have gotten 7 responses for your ad and one more new out of school was offered a position in our Trainee program yesterday. But in the ad Walt got a kick out of how you put Mickeys in it . . .
