Why should you have your driving assessed?
The courses are designed to improve driver safety through combinations of theory and practical on-road training to suit your needs. Driver training and assessment can reduce road accidents, costly repairs to vehicles, staff injuries and escalating insurance premiums. It also shows a commitment to your staff with health and safety needs.
Who should attend?
High mileage drivers, sales representatives, service engineers. Those drivers with poor accident records - those who are always having that near miss - or anyone who has not had professional driver-training since passing the test.
What does the assessment offer?
An enjoyable two hour assessment covering observation/hazard perception and defensive driving techniques. At the end o f the assessment a comprehensive report is issued.
Where are the assessments held?
The assessments can be arranged to accommodate your requirements using a fully equipped driving school vehicle. The scheme is managed by Road Safety Officers and the assessment will be conducted by a Driving Standards Agency Approved Driving Instructor.
