Our Training Courses at a Glance

It's been said that driving a motor vehicle is one of the most technically difficult activities the average person will undertake. Because the majority of drivers are taught 'How to pass a test' rather than 'How to drive', they can often take to the road in a totally unprepared state.

The Driving Centre has developed a range of courses designed to improve road safety. This has been in response to the need for a more comprehensive program - particularly those who are most at risk, drivers under the age of 25 - one that incorporates both the practical and theoretical aspects of driver training.

DriveSafe Course

This level offers participants the opportunity to develop their knowledge and their driving technique. It focuses on:

• vehicle balance,
• smoothness and mentally 'switching on' in a crisis,
• controlled braking,
• hazard perception and
• cornering lines.

For further details please see the DriveSafe Course Overview.

DriveSafe Course (Advanced)

This covers more specialised and in-depth training. It offers;

• continued technique instruction,
• including evasive lane change exercises and threshold breaking,
• skid pan training that focuses on skid control and vehicle dynamics such as the perception and control of understeer,
• oversteer recovery training, which is conducted using the Centre's unique vehicle turntable.

For further details please see the DriveSafe Course (Advanced) Overview.

DriveSafe Course (Premium)

Participants in this course must hold a DriveSafe Advanced Certificate. Training is much more advanced and is:

• carried out in a more powerful training car
• most activities are also done at greater speeds than an Advanced Course.
• This particular course can be tailored to suit the individual's requirements.

For further details please see the DriveSafe Course (Premium) Overview.

CAMS Motorsport Course

The skills needed for motorsport racing are based on a fundamental technique which can be taught by experienced, qualified instructors. The Driving Centre is proud to be an endorsed service provider for CAMS competition licence applicants.

All our courses offer a solid grounding in driving technique and defensive practices. As a result, participants will become aware of how a combination of correct driving technique, proper attitudes, accepting their responsibility as road users and fully understanding vehicle dynamic behaviour will give them a significant safety advantage.
