Training seminar focuses on safety with hybrids, electric and vehicle anatomy

With the technology in today’s automobiles changing faster than ever before, it’s important for emergency personnel and other front line first responders to know how to deal with the most advanced automobiles in the event of a motor vehicle accident. Hosted by Doan Family of Dealerships, the First Responder Information Seminar will have two dates this year. Dates and times are as follows: Thursday, November 16 starting at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday, November 18 starting at 8:30 a.m. located at the Chevrolet facility, 5045 Ridge Road West in Spencerport. These seminars are free for all emergency personnel.

This seminar will focus on the “Technology of Air Bags, Seat Belts, High Intensity Headlamps and Ultra High Strength Steels” and will conclude with “Hybrid two-mode Vehicles, Mild Hybrid Systems, Electric Chevrolet Volt and the all new Chevrolet Bolt.”

“Just a few years ago, if we offered information on these vehicles, people would perceive  that there are only a few of these vehicles on the road,” says Michael Gross, “But now, with ever changing technology and multiple vehicle manufacturers offering more different models, it’s become important that first responders know how to deal with the technology.”

Doan Family of Dealerships employee, Michael Gross of the Chevrolet facility, will be presenting the program. Gross is also a member of the Hamlin Fire Department; he has over 25 years of experience with fire and emergency services.
