Driver safety is the biggest source of fleet liability risk. Whether a business has a fleet of trucks or just one or two salespeople on the road, it could be at risk for a costly lawsuit. Many companies don’t realize they have an important duty of care to do all they can to ensure they put only safe drivers on the roads. An MVR on each driver, monitored monthly, can help the company achieve this- driver after driver.
