Overview:
Advanced Driving aims to endow you with a heightened sense of awareness of the road environment, and the ability to anticipate with a degree of accuracy what may happen next. Being able to make a decision instantly and then implement it is critical to staying out of trouble. A further aspect of the course is to help you appreciate your capabilities and those of your car: with this knowledge, you will have a much higher likelihood of not only reacting correctly in an emergency situation but also of recovering control of the vehicle swiftly and safety.
While a Subaru does give you more traction and grip, even the best engineering in the world cannot overcome the laws of physics. So, in a controlled environment, we will teach you how to recognize and correct different kinds of skids. Smooth and precise use of the controls is another key skill that you’ll be taught, and you’ll emerge from the course with a solid grounding which will assist you every time you drive.
