(H5) Rear-end collisions can be very serious since the vehicle that is struck from behind is usually stopped or moving very slowly while the other vehicle is in motion. This course describes the common causes of rear-end collisions and what drivers of light commercial vehicles can do to reduce their risk of being involved in such a collision. Topics in this course include: Lack of Concentration, Following Distance, Running Late or Being in a Hurry, Intersections and Caution Lights, Construction Zones, and Fatigue. After completing this course, learners will be able to recognize how to reduce the risk of another vehicle colliding from the rear.

(H5) Motorists need to obey stop signs and signals at all times. This course explains the consequences of failing to obey stop lights and signals.

(H5) A split-second decision can change your life, especially when you are behind the wheel of a fast-moving, heavy vehicle. This course discusses what you need to do before you drive, while you drive and in the event of an accident. Topics in this course include: Before You Drive; Distracted Driving; Speed, Following, and Stopping; Intersections, Lanes, and Parking; and Accidents. After completing this course, you will be able to recognize how to prepare to drive safely, identify best practices for driving safely, recognize safe driving choices in specific situations and conditions, and identify what to do in case of an accident.

Rear-end collisions can be very serious since the vehicle that is struck from behind is usually stopped or moving very slowly while the other vehicle is in motion. The potential for catastrophe is amplified when the vehicle in motion is a van or truck and the vehicle that is struck is a smaller vehicle such as an automobile. This course focuses on the common causes of rear-end collisions and what drivers of light commercial vehicles can do to reduce their risk of being involved in such a collision.
