In most sales, maintenance and transportation related jobs, employees spend a lot of their time on the road. Traffic accidents are one of the major causes of untimely deaths in the country and injuries caused lead to a significant reduction in the loss of productivity due to absenteism. However, most accidents can be easily prevented if the driver takes certain simple precautions and follows certain guidelines.

The driving safety video also instructs drivers on how to drive in rain, snow, ice, at night and other hazardous conditions. In case of unexpected emergencies like vehicle skidding or hydroplaning, the drivers gets tips on how to best deal with them. To test whether the drivers have understood the video, they can be given a 10 question quiz which is supplied with the car driving video.
