SKIDCAR News - Summer/Fall 2011, Alabama

AMIC Prepares First 2012 Caprice SKIDCAR: Montgomery, ALABAMA

Alabama Municipal Insurance Corp. has installed a SKIDCAR onto a 2012 Chevrolet Caprice. This is the first Chevrolet Caprice in North America to be used with a SKIDCAR SYSTEM. The conversion was recently completed at their Montgomery, Alabama base and as you read this, several weeks of training will have already been delivered by Stanley Fant (Alabama State Trooper Retired), the Driver Training Coordinator for AMIC.

In testing the new Caprice SKIDCAR, Fant and President of AMIC, Steve Wells, were immediately impressed. “The new safety technology available is incredible. We do see though that an experienced driver is predisposed to overreact to the ESC system operation and actually fight against its helping gain back control. Training with this new model will help us keep our insured drivers up to date with the vehicle safety technology so that we continue to lower accident rates with our SKIDCAR program.” The SKIDCAR program has a proven track record in Alabama. The losses from motor vehicle accidents continue to fall due to the driver training programs utilizing the AMIC SKIDCAR.
