Advanced & Defensive Driving Courses Wolverhampton
.
We offer advanced driving courses for companies and private individuals across the UK, and also in Wolverhampton.
We cover Wolverhampton and of the UK – We come to you for the training:
We provide bespoke advanced/defensive driver training to companies and private individuals using our national network of DVSA-registered advanced driving instructors.
All our driving courses are conducted by Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) fleet-registered ADIs (Approved Driving Instructors). All our tutors have a passion for road safety and teach the latest driving techniques to drivers of all abilities in an easy-to-learn, informative, and enjoyable way.
For all our bespoke driving courses in Wolverhampton, we provide training on a range of roads and different areas, which can include:
Motorway – Wolverhampton is near three nearby motorways: the M5, which links to the M6, and the M54 to the north of the city. Using these busy, fast routes, we can create tailored motorway driving courses specifically designed to develop confidence on motorways. There are many reasons why drivers tend to avoid motorways where possible; the higher speeds and the extra lanes are the main reasons, but also entering and exiting on busy junctions is a significant concern. We use several techniques for training drivers, for example, IPSGA – information, planning, speed, gears, and acceleration.
These techniques can improve your observations, which will be very beneficial in helping you avoid potential dangers. Understanding the regulations of motorway driving is essential if you intend to use them regularly for work or family purposes. We have trained many drivers, from newly qualified to mature drivers seeking to refresh their driving skills, as well as thousands of company drivers, to ensure they are safe on the road and potentially lower fleet insurance claims through fewer incidents.
Rural Roads – To the west and north of Wolverhampton are numerous rural roads, which can be hazardous for drivers unfamiliar with the area or those driving too fast. The worst-affected areas are the A41 and the A464, as well as the B4176 from Wombourne through Upper Aston and Stableford. New drivers and those unfamiliar with the area are at the highest risk when driving rurally, so it is crucial to understand how to use them safely. With fewer warning signs than usual, limited street lighting, and minimal speed cameras, rural roads tend to be the ones where drivers take the most risks, resulting in some severe collisions.
To drive safely on rural roads, you must be highly observant, especially on narrow and winding roads where oncoming vehicles can appear suddenly, and cyclists or horse riders may be using the lanes. Being able to slow down safely is essential. Rural roads are particularly beautiful, especially in the summer months. Still, during winter, they can be hazardous due to potential flooding, ice, or tree falls, so understanding and planning your route is vital at such times.
Urban Training – Wolverhampton is a very busy city in the Midlands, with a large ring road surrounding the centre. It has seen some severe collisions, especially around the roundabouts of the A41 and the A454, as well as Chapel Ash and Darlington Street. Patience is one of the primary requirements of urban driving, as roads can be very congested, especially during rush hours, when most drivers rush to their destinations. Many urban accidents could have been avoided with more patience, and a reasonable amount of advanced driver training for most drivers will dramatically reduce risks.
Remember – Each driving course is totally bespoke to your own specific needs and requirements. This applies to both our business and private client courses.
