MILLION MILE ACCIDENT FREE FLEET
Date: Fri, Nov 25th, 2011 12:00:00 am

Andrus Transporation began a Million Mile Accident Free Fleet Contest on March 24, 2011. We've had several fleets get very close to the million mile (preventable accident free) mark and then have a fender bender or something else occur which disqualifed the fleet. On Wednesday, November 16th, David Roberts' fleet was the first Andrus Fleet to hit the million mile, no preventable accidents mark. Congratulations goes out to each driver that is part of this "million mile fleet." In January of 2012, Andrus will be having a Safety Banquet in St. George to honor those involved in this remarkable accomplishment. The drivers are encouraged to bring their spouses with them for this banquet. Davids' Drivers will receive a "Million Miles Fleet Jacket" as well as several other gifts. We will have more information on this Awards Banquet, once we determine a final date.

We need each Andrus driver to keep in mind that this is a continuing contest. It is our goal to have each Andrus Fleet, reach the million mile, accident free, milestone. A big Congratulations to the David Roberts Fleet!

LATEST SAFETY MESSAGE
Date: Mon, Nov 7th, 2011 12:00:00 am

1) Nearly 80% of our accidents occur “off” the highway (truck stops, parking lots, etc.). Almost every one is preventable and can affect your driving careers. Having several minor preventable accidents can result in drivers not being insurable, nor would many employers hire them. Concentration levels and common sense should remain as high (or higher) off highway as it is rolling down the road. Stay safe and be smart.

2) It’s Winter and parking lots, driveways, steps and walkways are going to be slicker than (add your own simile if you like). Please wear good, effective, slip resistant footwear and be very careful entering and alighting from your trucks and trailers. It’s no fun (and not very graceful) to get hurt! Stay safe and be smart.
