DATS Participates in UDOT's "Drive Truck Smart" Campaign Click this photo for additional photos of this event. The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) Motor Carrier Services Division continued its educational campaign today encouraging teen beginning drivers to “Drive Truck Smart” with a hands-on demonstration at Copper Hills High School in West Jordan, UT. DATS is participating in this campaign by applying vinyl wraps to several trailers and providing equipment and employees to staff events around the state. At this event, drivers’ education students were able to sit inside the cab of a semi truck surrounded by cars they couldn’t see for the “blind spots.” Demonstrations were also held related to stopping distances. This gave them an up-close look at how commercial motor vehicles behave differently than passenger vehicles. “As part of our Commercial Vehicle
Safety Plan we saw the need to help educate young drivers on ways to drive safely and courteously around commercial motor
vehicles,” said Rick Clasby, Motor Carrier Services division director. Watch for news about additional events around the state. |
