DRIVER HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT






In any sought of transportation healthy environment is important, mainly in case of Road transportation, the whole ball game mainly depend on the driver only.

The life of the driver is very tough, the person has to move long distance ( Day /Night ), every one in hurry . The person has to receive ph call, no proper sleeping/ bathing/ eating.

  2. Some food & water packets for the journey .
  3. At least offer some water & sitting place if other option not available.
  4. Be polite , listen some feeling of the concern.
  5. Don’t make him wait , he also might be in hurry.
  6. Make a health checkup for the concern because your entire materials on his hand.

2.       Avoid calling him several times
3.       Don’t rush on him, or don’t shout
4.    Plan beforehand , keep buffer time in hand
