2009-10 Driver Trainer Inservice REVIEW: Flex and stretch to keep muscles mobile. Don’t over extend upper extremity when performing pre/post trips.

2009-10 Driver Trainer Inservice REVIEW (cont.): If possible, avoid lifting for 2–3 minutes after driving—ligaments in your back stretch and slacken if you sit a long time. After standing they remain slack and can not support the spine as they normally do. 2009-10 Driver Trainer Inservice

PROPER SEAT ADJUSTMENT: Seat back adjusted 90−110 degrees from your legs - tilt a notch every 20−30 minutes. Elbows should be bent at a 90 degree angle. Seat should be forward enough that you do not have to lean forward. Reach the foot pedal without stretching. 2009-10 Driver Trainer Inservice
