In the latest Driven by Excellence podcast series from PDT Fleet Traing Solutions, Andy Smart, Head of L&D at PDT discusses and shares his wealth of knowledge on driver training, vehicle technology and the rise of alternative fuelled vehicles.
In particular, Andy emphasises the importance of familiarising drivers with new vehicle technology to improve driver and vehicle safety and efficiency.
Ensuring that drivers of electric vehicles are aware of the different driving techniques required, and that drivers of gas powered vehicles are fully aware of the specific refueling procedures required.
He also will talk about how CPC training has improved driver knowledge over the past decade, and that although classroom-based CPC traing can be effective, combining that with on-road training takes that training to anew level.
