The Importance of Driver Training

So the death toll in Kenya for road related deaths has already reached 130, and we are only just past the first month of the new year.

These deaths could have been avoided if drivers only had proper training. We are losing lives at a rapid rate on Kenyans roads. One person dies every 3 hours due to road related injuries in Kenya. That equals 3,000 deaths a year.

It's important that managers of companies wake up to this fact and do it urgently. Companies can no longer incur losses incurred because of bad driving - especially in this current global economic turmoil. It's not only a moral issue of saving lives, but it will also bite into the company's bottom line and affect much needed profits.

We encourage all employees to petition their companies to pay for professional defensive driving lessons. It could save your life.
