Many snowplow training videos focus on the mechanics of operating different kinds of plows — use of an auger, spreader rates, when to plow, etc. — or on how to drive a truck, but few of them deal with collision issues... until the Snowplow Safety ™ video was produced. Ideal for training newly hired snowplow operators or as a refresher for experienced operators-can be used in a classroom setting or as self-study.
PROGRAM COMPONENTS
Topics addressed include:
- Equipment inspection
- Positioning of the truck
- Scanning, mirror use and defensive driving techniques
Also included in the video presentation are on-screen diagrams that allow for self-study or group discussion of collision prevention techniques.
