DP World Santos holds 6th edition of Friendly Driver Program, with free services for truck drivers

DP World Santos, one of Brazil’s largest and most modern private multipurpose port terminals, situated on the left bank of the Port of Santos, will hold another edition of its Motorista Legal (Friendly Driver) campaign on August 29, 30 and 31, which offers free services to truck drivers that access the terminal’s facilities at the Port of Santos receive health and wellness services.

This is the sixth edition of the campaign, which will run on Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The program includes basic health services, such as tests for blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and visual acuity (vision), as well as free haircuts for participants.

In addition to the services offered, the program’s activities aim to raise awareness among truck drivers on the safety measures to be adopted both inside and outside the facilities. The drivers also participate in brief lectures and safety inductions that orient them on following traffic safety rules.

In five years, the action has served more than 2,000 drivers, and organizers expect this figure to be surpassed in 2018. The campaign also will raffle off prizes to participants.
