"We started with the SafetyFirst program two years ago. We had between five to seven accidents on the books at any one time, out of a fleet of 77 rubber-tire vehicles. Six months into the program, we had zero accidents. A year later, we still had zero accidents. I couldn�t believe it. We haven�t had an accident since we started the program."

| "We�ve seen a substantial reduction in crashes and violations. Because of it [the reduction in actual crashes/claims] our insurance company approached us about lowering our rates. It led us to a reduction in insurance premiums of $20,000 per year�we�ve taken that savings and given it back to employees as bonuses or put it into their pension fund. They obviously like that. � We went through this whole winter without one accident. I don�t think that�s a coincidence."

"I have to confess, I had some initial concerns about the program; the reduced accident numbers being projected seemed overwhelmingly optimistic, and I was worried that my field management staff would fail to support the program as needed to see results. Now that we have worked together for several months, I want to report that my concerns were overcome by your team�s effective communication with our field managers�[and] to summarize our results, I am happy to report that within our 400 unit fleet:
1. Our accidents are down 15-20%
2. The field has bought into the program (measured by their closeout of
reports and coaching of affected drivers)
3. We reward drivers when they are complimented and this really
enhances the program."

| "SafetyFirst remains flexible and dedicated to our needs�a service that often exceeds our organization�s expectations...It is our experience that the positive results of proper program implementation (measured in reduced vehicle accidents and their related expenses) surpass the direct annual expense of the program."
