Safe Trip Planning: Over-the-Road Travel Considerations (Microlearning)

SNP-84.2



Because most freight is intended to reach its destination by a certain date and time, proper planning is necessary. Inclement weather, traffic, road construction, fuel and food stops, and repairs can all affect how quickly a vehicle can travel its intended route. This course will help learners recognize practical and safety considerations for over-the-road travel and long-range trip planning, including routing, scheduling, contingency and emergency planning. This microlearning course addresses a specific aspect of a broader training topic. For a more complete training experience, see DOT-4.2 Safe Trip Planning for Over the Road Drivers.
