Terms & conditions

Today’s motoring climate requires one to have better skills on the road. The reasons are:

    • We are now part of a bigger Europe. This means our fellow Europeans can drive on a EU licence. They will bring with them their own style of driving.

 

    • The cost of fuel & maintenance is still a strain on the company’s profits. Imagine the cost of diesel fuel for a fleet of car drivers or van drivers?

 

    • More motorists and more road signs than it use to be some twenty years ago.

 

    • The costs of maintenance has also gone up.

 

This course which is a half day training can be delivered to your staff. I will not be instructing your staff on how to drive, but to offer coaching which will make them more safe drivers on the road. The benefits to you are:

    • With better planning skills, early braking instead of harsh braking. Harsh baking is the enemy of fuel. The harder you brake, the more fuel you will use.

 

    • Less risk of being involved in road traffic collision. Your employees are ambassadors for your company. You could be fined heavily under the corporate manslaughter act.

 

    • Reduced maintenance costs for your cars. Higher resale value.

 

    • Less gear changes, more block gear change will result in less fuel being used. Again, a benefit to your company.

 

    • Your staff will be trained by a Master DVSA Fleet Registered  ADI. Top 5% of instructors in England and Wales.

 

    • Raised staff morale. A sense of achievement and long term staff loyalty.

Most drivers do not know where to look when reversing. A typical van is full of blind spots. Modern cars have wide rear pillars which makes it difficult to reverse.

If there is more than 2 staff who need to have their driving risk assessed, then a discount can be achieved.
