A safe attitude, not knowledge, determines whether a driver will use the safety devices and information available to him. A driver may know how to make a safe turn in city traffic, but his safety habits or attitudes will influence whether he does make safe turns. A safer driver will be more cautious when feeling tired or when visibility is poor. While factual knowledge can be taught, it is more difficult to instill in a driver safe attitudes.

A loyal driver takes direction well and respects both employer rules and policies and State and Federal regulations. He or she values honesty and dedication to company goals.
