Advanced Defensive Driving (Corporate
courses available) |
|
This course enables drivers to experience the difficulties
encountered when they make a mistake and lose control of their vehicle.
We endeavour to show the participants how to avoid these dangerous
situations and also how to get out of them if and when they occur.
This course is extremely helpful to make drivers
understand the capabilities of their own vehicle. It must be emphasised
that this course is not designed
to teach people how to drive fast, but rather has the opposite view
and is designed to teach safe defensive driving. It is designed
to show how long it takes to stop in an emergency situation and
how to avoid getting into a skid in the first place. The course
also has an on road assessment for your own benefit.
