The art of driving safely is a combination of skill, attitude and knowledge. Its simply beyond driving slowly at all times. The technique to be defensive is a know-how which every driver should know as its ensuring everyone's safety. We help you to make sense out of the common-sense of driving.
The Training approachPower-packed trainer with solid content program is the proper mix for a successful training session. Thats's our philosophy. We strive to ensure everyone leaves the training with a renewed determination to be safer on the roads. One small step towards a safer driving nation.
Our programs are tailored towards:
1. Behaviour-based rather than skill-based: buy-in through the hearts and mind
2. Prevention is better than cure: no offensive i.e. slalom, but just defensive
3. Experiential learning and discovery: with simulator technologies
4. Coaching on real driving: commentary drive assessment and driving video review
