ADVANCED DRIVER TRAINING |
|

|

All our advanced driving courses are based on the police advanced driving system Roadcraft.
Lots of us have driven for many years and have covered
thousands of miles, but how many of you still use the
basic skills gained during your ‘L’ test?
There have been many advances in vehicle and road technology.
Now is your chance to bring your driving skills uptwospeed
with these changes. |

Each session commences with an assessment
of your current knowledge and skills. This ensures
no time is wasted covering things you know: knowledge
of the forces acting on a vehicle during acceleration,
braking and cornering are essential to advanced
driving. We will check your understanding of these
and how you control your vehicle on the open road
in changing road, traffic and weather conditions.
The key to all driving is observations. This is
one area where most improvement is gained during
these sessions. We will extend your observations
further than you ever thought and build a complete
picture of the risks and dangers which are not only
visible but which you should also anticipate. |

You will learn skills to assess every bend accurately. This will allow you to maintain safe progress, increase the stability of your vehicle on the road and make your cornering safer whilst having fun.
Learn about the different types of overtakes. Develop new overtaking skills which ensure that you are always in the right place, travelling at the right speed and the correct gear selected to overtake quickly and safely. You should never miss the opportunity to overtake again.
For those of you who drive a vehicle fitted with an automatic
gearbox, we will teach you that it is not appropriate
to select D (drive) for all road and traffic conditions.
Learn about your automatic transmission and how you can
use the gearbox to improve the control of your vehicle.
This will also improve your stability and can improve
your maintenance and fuel costs.
Throughout these sessions the emphasis is on safety and Defensive Driving skills. You will develop positioning for safety, stability and observations. At all times you will increase the ‘Safety Bubble’ around your vehicle. This will give you time to react to the risks and dangers presented by other road users. Actively assess these risks and manage them safely with your space and speed. Don’t under estimate the risks from other road users; the normal level of attention for average drivers is only 20%.
Our advanced driving sessions are designed not only to improve your vehicle control but to assist you in bringing your skills uptwospeed and in tune with current road and vehicle technology. Develop new skills whilst having fun and be one step ahead of those who present danger and conflict to you on the roads. |
