Bespoke driver and speed awareness courses for UK businesses and private clients.
We offer both full-day and half-day advanced driving courses focused on speed management and driver awareness. These courses are suitable for business clients and private individuals who wish to improve their driving safety and awareness, and who are not required to attend a course as part of an Intended Prosecution.
There are several reasons why someone may choose to undertake a speed awareness course, including:
For Business Clients:
1. For an employee who is accumulating points on his or her licence, and you want to take action to ensure they become aware of their speeding.
2. If you’re aware that an employee is driving too fast. Either through points, damage to company vehicles or from passenger reports.
3. As part of your organisation’s H&S policy, effective management of speed and creating a safer workforce.
4. If you have a driver or drivers who generally need to become safer and more responsible.
We can train from one to 100+ drivers anywhere in the UK.
For Private Clients:
1. If you have been advised by a solicitor to undertake additional driver training following a speeding offence and are facing a court appearance, completing a speed awareness course can help demonstrate to the court that you have taken proactive steps to address your driving behaviour. Our course shows a commitment to understanding the causes of speeding and to improving your driving standards.
2. If you have become aware that you may be driving too fast and would like to improve your awareness and control of speed, our course can help you develop safer driving habits. This training is suitable for both individuals who wish to improve their own driving and those looking to support a family member or loved one in becoming a safer, more responsible driver.
Note: this course is not designed for people who have received a notification in the post after being caught exceeding the speed limit by a speed camera and have to complete a National Speed Awareness Course.
Driver and Speed Awareness Course Content:
We begin with a relaxed and informal conversation with your tutor in a friendly, non-judgemental environment. Our goal is to support and guide you, or your driver, in improving the standard of driving. This initial discussion helps us understand your driving experience, habits, and any areas you would like to develop.
Following this, you will complete an initial drive with your tutor. This allows us to assess your current driving standard and identify opportunities to improve your skills and confidence on the road.
Your course will then be tailored to suit your needs. Courses typically fall into two categories: Speed Awareness, which focuses primarily on understanding and managing speed, or General Driver Awareness, which covers speed control alongside wider coaching in safe, defensive driving techniques to help you become a more confident and responsible driver.
Speed Awareness Courses:
* Essential tips on how to avoid speeding
* Developing effective observation and planning skills to help manage speed
* Creating a positive and responsible driving attitude
* Dealing with unfamiliar roads – often where speeding occurs
* Understand the link between stress and speeding
* Learning advanced and defensive driving techniques
* Know when it is safe to use speed, and when to hold back
* How to enter and exit areas with varying speed limits – often where people get caught speeding
When the training is complete, we will mark you again in the 25 key areas of driving; this will enable you to see how you have improved and your overall ability as a driver. This marking format makes it very easy to see how well you performed and improved on the day.
