This is why there are several things to remember. Safety, this isn’t just about being careful and doing what’s right. A bad safety rating can hurt your company. Proper and consistent CDL training and endorsements is another thing that can improve the overall picture about your organization.

But the number one thing is maintenance, properly maintained trucks is the key.
