In order to prepare drivers
for any eventuality, we feel that skid control is an integral
part of our driving skills. Unfortunately, too many motorists
only realise how little control they have over their motor
vehicle once they are in an emergency situation. In fact less
than 5% of all drivers have attended a skidpan course.
Through skidpan training we are able to show
people the correct techniques to maximise their vehicle control
in an emergency situation.
For this session, the participants utilise
their own vehicles. This is extremely important as it shows
them exactly what to expect from their respective vehicles
and themselves in any given situation.
Skidpan training takes approximately three
to four hours, during which time we cover the following situations:
- Loss of control.
- Regaining control.
- Cadence braking.
- Emergency lane changes.
- Oversteer & Understeer.
- Various vehicle orientation exercises.
Upon completion of the course all candidates
will receive certification of attendance and lunch will be
served.
After covering the above training techniques
we are confident the participants will have gained a tremendous
amount of knowledge about the correction of emergency situations,
however bear in mind defensive drivers should generally be
able to avoid the majority of emergency situations through
awareness and anticipation. |
