On August 25, CHCH aired a segment with Wayne Toth about the new electric vehicle (EV) safety training pilot program, made possible by a $450,000 commitment from RBC Foundation. Toth, who recently retired as coordinator of the Motive Power program, walked reporter Tessa Bennett through the Green Automotive Technology lab at NC’s Welland Campus. Toth spoke to the specialized training first responders will receive this fall to meet a critical need for electric vehicle emergency preparedness.
