TOP DRIVER SIGNS NATIONAL DRIVER TRAINING AGREEMENT WITH ENTERPRISE FLEET SERVICESENTERPRISE CUSTOMERS TO BENEFIT FROM SAFETY PARTNERSHIP WITH DRIVER TRAINING LEADER ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Sept. 14 Top Driver, Inc. (http://www.topdriver.com), the nation's largest and fastest growing driver training and education company, announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Enterprise Fleet Services, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enterprise Rent-A-Car to be the exclusive provider of comprehensive driver training programs for Enterprise's fleet customers on a national basis. These driver training programs are optional services that Enterprise plans to make available to its customers. "We are extremely pleased about our alliance with Enterprise," said Sebastian Giordano, CEO of Top Driver. "We applaud the commitment Enterprise has made to its clients and to driver safety. Such driver training initiatives will not only reduce the incidence of motor vehicle crashes and the financial burden they cause, but more importantly, these programs will improve the health and well-being of employees and their families." According to Jim Block, Assistant Vice President of Enterprise Fleet Services, "We believe employees are the most valuable asset to any organization. If we can reduce employee auto accidents as a result of improved driving skills, then it is imperative we offer a quality safety program to all of our customers and their employees." Giordano believes that the statistics point to the need for ongoing driver training, stating that, "the benefits to be derived by corporations and employees that implement such cost-effective driver training programs are enormous." While motor vehicle crashes remain the leading cause of death in the workplace, a 1995 report issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicated that nearly half of the $53 billion cost to corporate America of motor vehicle crashes incurred in 1992 resulted from off-the-job injuries to workers and their families. With approximately 220 driver training facilities, Top Driver is the only driver training company to offer, on a national basis, various driver training programs, such as novice training, defensive driving, insurance premium reduction including special savings through MetLife Auto Insurance, traffic violator, specialty vehicles and corporate fleet training as well as an array of driving related products, services and information. Top Driver is a privately held company with headquarters located in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. For more information, please call 1.888.TOPDRIVER.
