"Duininck has used CTOT from its inception. We send all our commercial driver's license holders through some level of CTOT training every year.

This training keeps our drivers up-to-date on construction truck regulations, truck inspections, brake adjustment, load securement, hazardous material handling, safe vehicle operation including behind the wheel vehicle dynamics and safe driving techniques. The financial rewards to our company in both reduced premiums and low losses make this a program one we are unwilling to change. This CTOT training has proven to be extremely cost effective."
