Reverse Backing Systems Sets out to Save Fleet Owners Big Money
(ContentDesk) November 28, 2005 -- Reverse Backing Systems (RBS) takes proactive to a new level with exclusive collision avoidance technology geared specifically for the fleet industry. RBS contends that by investing in a system that will prevent accidents, fleet owners can save millions of dollars, collectively, in property damage and insurance costs. Our products lower operating costs by increasing fleet safety, summarizes Jared Jolly, CEO and President.Each year in the US there are over 300,000 reported reversing accidents, which account for more than 400 deaths annually and cost drivers in excess of 1.3 billion dollars in damages. Since fleet drivers are on the road much more than typical drivers (who have a 1 in 15 chance of being involved in a collision each year), their chances of being in an accident are higher. Consider the repercussions of crashes in addition to physical harm and property damages, there can be a loss of productivity and potential third-party liability...

Ford To Be Part Of Texas Football
Texans are known for lots of things ? the hot weather, their love for ranches, and football. You can also add to the list their love for pickup trucks which is not very surprising. After all, pickup trucks are very useful in their everyday lives ? from their home duties to work responsibilities. What makes pickup trucks unique among all vehicles is that this type is very flexible and could handle various duties.
And now, the Ford Motor Company is using this Texan love for pickup trucks and football to show off what the company has got to give.
The company is actually planning on sponsoring awards that would be given to the Texas high school football player for the week. Indeed, this would be a good way to give back to its customers and at the same time advertise the products that the vehicle manufacturer has to offer. After all, Texas owns up to a huge share of customers who patronize Ford truck parts,...
