Principles of Defensive Driving

Defensive driving is the critical awareness skill drivers need to reduce the risk of accidents, injuries and even fatalities on the road.

Our advanced curriculum goes beyond abstract lessons to immerse drivers in realistic scenarios using a unique “See, Decide, Act” approach. To make the training even more impactful, it can be tailored to focus on specific skills or problem areas, and for any type of vehicle, from heavy-duty tractor trailers to light-duty passenger vehicles.
