Description:
When a company vehicle is involved in a motor vehicle incident, it is imperative that the organization or owner looks after their own best interests. While the police and insurance company’s complete investigations for their purposes, your business concerns are ultimately not their primary concern. This course teaches the driver the key elements of what and how to collect information at a collision scene.
