The Governor appointed this committee in
1971 to establish a safety program for State em-
ployees who drive State-owned and privately-
owned motor vehicles during their performance of
official State business.

Under the State Fleet Safety Committee's pro-
gram, Accident Review Boards have been estab-
lished in all State Departments. These boards re-
view all motor vehicle accidents involving State
employees on official business, determine the
cause and preventability of the accident, and rec-
ommend corrective action to be taken. Addition-
ally, the Committee involves itself in vehicle safe-
ty promotional activities, along with a program
of Defensive Driving Instruction by trained in-
structors from various State Departments.

These actions have helped reduce accidents and
the resultant costs. Continuation of this program
will make State drivers aware of their driving re-
sponsibilities and further contribute to the safe
operation of the State fleet.

The Committee meets regularly the last Tues-
day of each month.
