Last Thursday and Friday (Jun 9 & 10, 2011) CCMG conducted a Safety Clinic for personnel from the Contra Costa Water District.  Over two days we had 34 people driving 15 vehicles, learning to operate them safely under a variety of off-road conditions.

The participants’ day starts off with a brief classroom session.  In the classroom we go over some of the basic concept, like keeping holding the steering wheel safely, managing tire pressure, etc.Classroom Session
