Driving Toward A Viral Video Brian Shaw You see them in every ambulance anymore. Those little dashboard cameras. Some people think that they can get you in more trouble than they are worth, but if you know how to use them to benefit your company, they can be extremely useful. In this session, Brian reviews many of the videos from his own department and shows us how to use the footage for the safest ride possible. Vehicle Maintenance: Preventing Problems Before They Start David Light You are dispatched to a motor vehicle accident on a high traffic road in your area. You respond to the call driving speed limit when suddenly a tire blows. The driver looses control of the rig, swerves into oncoming traffic and narrowly misses another vehicle. We all know this could have ended much differently. Join Dave Light as he discusses how properly maintaining your fleet might just save your life.
