driversshield.com Corp. on Oct. 30, 2001 announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with PHH Arval, a provider of fleet management services whereby PHH will purchase driversshield.com’s FS (Fleet Services) subsidiary for $6.3 million. PHH will also make a $1 million strategic investment in driversshield.com Corp.
