amazon delivery associate training QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
RANKED A+
1. starting up at intersection - look left, right, and left
2. when stopped in traffic- when stopped in traffic, a car length of space is required from the
vehicle ahead. this will allow enough space to pull your car around the vehicle ahead if it should
stall and will give you an instant cushion if it should make a turn.
3. count 1-2-3 after vehicle ahead has started to move- this step is to be followed when stopped
at an intersection behind another vehicle
4. 4-6 seconds following time for speeds under 30 mph 6-8 seconds for speeds over 30 mph- this
is to keep you from getting a fixation on the car ahead and to allow time to obtain and hold the
proper eye-lead time.
5. 8-15 seconds eyes-lead time- this is the best way to keep your eyes ahead of your wheels and
is the depth at which your eyes should be focused most of the time
6. scan steering wheels- look and see whether or not cars at the curb are occupied. this is the only
time they are a threat. if they are occupied the driver is probably about to exit from the car or pull
out from the curb
7. stale green lights- the point of decision is an imaginary line that you set up between your
vehicle and the crosswalk when you are approaching an intersection with a stale green light.
since you are not sure of the light, you must be sure of the point behind which you will stop if the
light should start to change. this helps you get the big picture.
8. eyes contact- when you must depend on anyone along the edge of your driving path to stay put
until you are past the danger point, it is imperative that you get their attention. the horn and lights
are your communication tools where you do not have eye contact. only when you have eye

  8. correctly sort and organize your vehicle according to the rabbit during loadout. you are not allowed extra time to stop and reorganize your vehicle after you leave the station. if you need to make any last minute adjustments to your load, please wait until you get to your first stop. how should i mark a package?

the rabbit will show the following categories that you must choose from to explain why you were unable to deliver:

access problem: when you are unable to physically approach the customers home (e.g. closed street, dog in yard, dangerous ice covering the driveway) cannot find address: when you cannot find the customers address security access code needed: when you cannot deliver to is closed for the day (enter the correct business hours into the app) nowhere safe to leave package: when there is no secure place to leave a package what if i find a package that is not on my route? - all packages MUST be attempted, even packages that are not technically on your route, if you find a package in one of your bags that is not included on your route select "pick up" on the rabbit (located on the main menu) and attempt the delivery. all packages must be attempted to be delivered twice. if you cannot complete a delivery, you have to go back to that location a second time during your route to reattempt the delivery if you have questions about a package that may not be close to you on your route, contact your dispatcher for help. what is "scan to verify" and how do i make sure i am scanning my entire route? - everything bag and over sized (OV) package must be scanned. on the rabbit's will keep track of how many items you have scanned on the camera screen. for example, for example it will star, 43 of 211 package scanned. if you physically scanned everything from your staging location and are still missing packages, ask an amazon associate for assistance. never try to solve the problem by "swipe to finish" - it will delay the customer from receiving their package on time

when do i use the mentor application and how can i have a safe driving score (FICO)? all drivers, departments of transportation(DOT) and non-DOT delivery associates, must use the mentor application. mentor measures your safe driving habits. it is mandatory to keep the application running throughout your entire shift. - specifically, mentor measure the following:

  1. acceleration is <9MPH/second (0-30MPH count to 3)
  2. braking: hard braking is more than 9 MPH/ second (30-0MPH count to 3)
  3. cornering: do not take turns >20MPH
  4. distractions: do NOT log in on your personal phone while operating the vehicle
  5. speeding: going above the posted speed limit the safest tip for maintaining a good mentor score is to never touch your device while driving, wear your seat belt, and always drive at the posted speed limit. if you drive at the speed limit, it greatly reduces the chances of harsh cornering, hard braking, and quick acceleration.
