EVOC & Driving Safety Expert | Author | IACP Leadership in Police Organizations (LPO) Instructor After more than 20 years as a police driving instructor and Driver Training Specialist, I've trained thousands of officers, firefighters, EMS crews, and corporate drivers to respond safely when it counts most. I serve as Vice Chair of the Safe Driving Committee and sit on both the Collision and Pursuit Review Committees (14+ years each)—turning real-world incidents into actionable training that prevents crashes, reduces lawsuits, and saves lives. Author of Emergency Vehicle Operation: Five Steps to Enhancing Your EVOC Training, I've presented at ALERT International conferences and deliver IACP LPO leadership sessions locally. This newsletter delivers no-fluff, practical tips straight from the road and review rooms: commentary driving drills, hazard scanning habits, common pursuit pitfalls (and fixes), plus anonymized case breakdowns. Expect one focused issue every couple of weeks—plus occasional free cheat-sheets for subscribers. If you're in law enforcement training, fleet safety, or first response and want tools that make a real difference, subscribe below. Spots for speaking/workshops open—reply or DM if you're planning an event.
