Essential skills for young drivers
Every young driver needs defensive skills training over and above the basic driver training they received to get their license.
This course is designed specifically for young drivers – those with a permit, all the way through licensed drivers in their mid-twenties. It is held at local high schools in a number of different areas, making it convenient and accessible, and it’s taught by certified law enforcement driving instructors.
Students get to spend time behind the wheel of their own vehicle learning and practicing emergency avoidance and response techniques, along with a number of other driver safety skills, in a safe and controlled environment. They will learn not only how their own vehicle handles in extreme situations, but also learn the true level of their own abilities and limitations.
