USING ADA AS YOUR DRIVER SAFETY
TRAINING COURSE PROVIDER

Clearly, the crucial
question in this equation is: What can Advanced Drivers of America
[ADA] give
you that other suppliers cannot?
There are several,
powerful answers to this, as follows:
-
For corporate
clients:
-
ADA can help
you create or update a fleet safety plan (or we can do the entire job
for you);
-
Our experts
can brief your management team with vital background information on all
aspects of fleet safety;
-
We will help
you identify your personnel who are most likely to have crashes, so that
efforts may be concentrated on those individuals;
-
We travel
to you, however many and wherever your facilities are located (but,
if you prefer, you can come to us);
-
The background
and experience of our president & chief instructor in the fields of traffic
safety and driver training are almost certainly unmatched in North America,
and are a major influence on our methodology.

Our training
methods are based firmly on "The System of Car Control" which is not only
the world's most in-depth driver training program but it is also the most
proven for safety and the most respected. It has been continually
refined and developed over an unprecedented 75-year period by the traffic
patrol police in Britain but has been used for teaching advanced driving to
civilian drivers and fleet drivers for a "mere" 55 of those 75 years, since
1955. The unbeatable quality of this methodology has now been fully
adapted for North America and ADA is the sole supplier of such, throughout
the continent;

Crucially, we spend significant time on the topic of
"attitude" in safe driving. Over the last 20-25 years,
this has emerged as the most important factor in driver safety
– far, far more important than
so-called "driving skills" –
and we believe that ADA dramatically leads the field in
teaching appropriate aspects of this vital subject!
-
As a result, ADA
will not teach methods that are, at best, dubious and at worst
are actually proven to cause more crashes than they prevent (i.e.
swerving
"evasion" techniques and skid training, respectively). We operate on
the well-proven and undeniable principle that it is far safer to learn
properly to identify potentially dangerous situations in advance, and
thereby avoid them, than it is to allow yourself to get into a bad situation
then try to escape from it again, despite being on a
potentially busy and/or narrow public road where there is little room to
maneuver and there are other people around who could also be killed
or injured by our errors!
-
We are also
firmly in a position to disprove the many myths and fallacies that circulate
about "the best way to drive"! See
our "Driving Myths and Mistakes" web page, and
also our own published
research papers.

We have a range
of courses to suit your needs (from one-hour work-group sessions for all drivers,
through to specialist
management seminars; half-day re-assessment drives through to ten-day driver training courses
and advanced grading; law
enforcement driving courses; military driver-safety training courses; and
train-the-trainers). We carefully tailor our services to suit clients'
specific challenges or needs.
-
Our instructors
are experts
–
usually with a highly appropriate professional background, too
–
but importantly they are emphatically not just people who have been taught a few very
basic principles of safe driving and have then been let loose on an
unsuspecting public!
