An interactive classroom session teaches drivers advanced vehicle control, situational awareness, and defensive positioning techniques, and includes a brief refresher on The Smith5Keys®. Drivers will also learn hazard perception, or S.E.E. (Search, Evaluate, Execute), as well as how to recognize and control high-risk factors.
Behind-the-wheel Training
On-site, instructor-led, hands-on, non-contact driving exercises start with a pre-course review and teach driver ergonomics and positioning for improved safety capabilities. Drivers will also learn close-quarter backing maneuvers, vehicle control exercises, advanced vehicle control techniques, driving distracted exercise, and skid-car vehicle training to experience real-world risky driving challenges within a safe environment.
