The direct and indirect costs of motor vehicle accidents can be devastating. The goal of every business should be to prevent and minimize injuries and damages that are caused by motor vehicle accidents. Employees who use or operate company vehicles or who use or operate personal vehicles for business purposes must be committed to traffic safety and accident prevention.

Road hazards and careless driving cause accidents.
