Attracting and keeping good drivers
is a key success factor for all transport companies.
A good driver will definitely improve areas like productivity,
fuel efficiency and safety.
An important factor for attracting drivers
is the comfort and the feeling of confidence
a safe and stable truck gives.
Let's visit Chabab El Ouadi at his work site,
a stone quarry in northern Morocco.
When he was hit from behind by a truck with failed breaks,
he managed to control the situation by breaking for both of them.
The strangest thing was when I was there
waiting for my turn in front of the scale.
A truck was coming from behind without brakes, as it was a slope.
The brakes got hot and stopped working properly.
He hit me from behind and threw me forward.
The problems that we face with the trucks here
are the other brands of the trucks.
They're creating problems in our work.
When I'm driving a Volvo, even though it is a heavy vehicle,
I feel like I'm driving a car because it is secure.
I've driven all kinds of trucks, all brands,
and there is nothing like a Volvo.
When I'm driving a Volvo, I feel very safe, stable and secure.
A driver in total control.
