Post Collision Driving Course

Post Collision Driving Course

Being involved in a road traffic collision (RTC) can have devastating results. It’s often only after a collision had occurred that someone’s driving comes into focus.

 

We offer personalized post-collision driving courses for drivers that are involved in either an at-fault or non-fault road traffic collision. We help both business and personal clients.

 

Our post-collision driving courses are ideal for companies that:

 

  1. Have a policy in situ to supply training for all employees after a collision
  2. Want to make sure the wellbeing and safety of an employee once they return to driving
  3. Want to require a proactive approach to a driver who has had a collision, and to make sure their driving is assessed for any “at-risk” factors, which might be putting them at a greater risk of a (similar) collision in the future.

 

Our post-collision driving courses, from a driver’s perspective, are ideal if:

  1. the driving force has lost confidence as a result of their collision
  2. They feel discussing their collision with a knowledgeable person and receiving personalized one-to-one training will help them
  3. They have developed a negative attitude as a result of the collision
