Driver Safety Training

DTS driver training increases confidence and skills which reduces incidents and running costs

We reduce a company's statistical incidents by introducing best in class training.

After examining individual driver errors and hazardous manoeuvres DTS will provide tailored coursework to include positive attitude, alertness and awareness and anticipation other road users. These positive elements when combined with good road craft will ensure the driver becomes a confident ‘Defensive Driver'.

We recognise a variety of factors which influence transport safety and that a number of these need to be addressed to minimise the risk of motor vehicle incidents. Accordingly DTS training is focussed on ‘Defensive Driving Techniques.’

We take into account the following factors when delivering training:

  • Safety is paramount
  • Vehicles should be road legal and compliant with the law
  • Identifying suitable vehicles
  • Driving as an employment or driving to and from place of work
  • Drivers must know how to safely operate their vehicle and understand the concept of being in full control of the vehicle.

That maintaining the vehicle in good roadworthy condition will greatly increase the vehicles years, thus reducing lifetime costs and incidents.

An understanding of how attitude and ability can affect driving and how positive behavioural processes impact driving thereby reducing road traffic accidents.

Drivers need to know how road conditions affect the handling of the vehicle and how they can approach and negotiate road hazards and act accordingly in a safe manner.

Drivers need to know what the local custom and laws of that country are, what the driving conditions are like and how they can adjust their driving skills to local conditions in order to reduce the likelihood of a motor vehicle incident.

We can tailor any of the courses that best suit your needs.
