Routine Disaster Planning

CUSTOMER CONFLICT: It's not an easy time for operators, especially those in hurricane zones or dealing with corporate clients going out of business. Unfortunately, there's a more regular, routine problem that comes up: dealing with unruly, violent customers. Two stories were posted with this sad tale - one in Toronto and one in Daytona Beach. Why is it that an industry that provides such a high level of service gets dragged into these messes? Passenger alcohol and drug overuse is part of it, along with powder keg problems in major cities. Many chauffeured companies do what they can to subvert or stop these fights through chauffeur training, dispatcher communications, law enforcement agency relationships, and vehicle security equipment.
