Abstract: Proper training is a prerequisite to proper performance, The Philadelphia Electric Companys Transportation Division Instructor Group is dedicated lo providing comprehensive training not only in all aspects of vehicular operation and usage but also in vehicular maintenance and safety. The group has a foreman to coordinate the activities of four instructors. They are expected to be familiar with the operation of all of P.E.Co.s 2,671 vehicles and, on short notice, be able to train an individual or group of people on the safe operation of any vehicle or its mounted equipment. In addition to field (hands-on) training, classroom sessions are important parts of the operators (raining. An example of this is the defensive driving program. The courses offered to employees on request of their employing officers are the National Safety Councils Defensive Driving Course and the Smith System. The National Safety Councils Course consists of films and lectures where the Smith system concept deals with space for the vehicle and visibility for ihe driver. The latter system is taught through actual hands-on conditions and evaluations by the instructor. Often these courses are given to employees who have had a series of accidents. After the accidents are analyzed by the instructors, the appropriate course is selected and given to the employee.
