• Escort Vehicle Training and Certification ($200)

  The purpose of escort vehicle and driver training is to enhance the safety of moving over-dimensional loads on highways and reduce delays and inconveniences to general traffic flow. Escort drivers have specific tasks to perform during the over-dimensional load movement phase. An escort vehicle is used to escort trucks with loads or convoys of vehicles. It serves as a forward or rear warning device to the general public and is required for specific over-dimensional or overweight loads. Escort vehicles are also referred to as flag or pilot cars. The escort vehicle driver is responsible for the overall movement of the load. It is important to remember that the over-dimensional load driver and the escort driver function as a team. Everyone must apply their skills and pay close attention to ensure the load moves safely. Constant alertness is necessary to anticipate and avoid problems.
