| Skidding! All Angles - All Action This course is not only educational, but great fun too.
The driving skills that you gain on this course could mean the difference between life and death if you encounter a skid situation in your normal driving. Using techniques which simulate loss of car control you'll learn the skills (and thrills) of driving on ice, aquaplaning and skid avoidance exercises with our friendly and expert instructor. We are sure your driving confidence will benefit from the addition of these skills - they're as enjoyable as they are educational. |

Time Drive Experience
Too
scared to take a teenaged learner driver out
onto the roads? Here is the solution. Ages from
12 to 16.
Even
youngsters can discover the thrill of driving
with this experience. Here, young people from 12
to 16 years old can get behind a steering wheel
for the first time in safe, controlled
conditions away from public roads with an ADI
instructor who will teach them the rudiments of
driving.
This experience is all about helping young
learners to make the most of that crucial first
drive - to learn more, to experience more and to
have much more fun, too.
|
|
| One
of the senior ARDS qualified instructors begins
with a briefing which covers all the safety
requirements and the format for the experience
before getting into the car (groups of 3
students per vehicle). Then it's onto the
driving. There is a demonstration by the
instructor before letting the young ones behind
the wheel. They will spend approximately 45
minutes driving. The de-brief follows & a
certificate of completion is awarded. This
experience will last approx 2.5 hours. |
