Our half day course takes you on a journey, first assessing how you drive and then moving on to develop and introduce you to new techniques.
The course is delivered by one of RED’s skilled trainers and will take place in your own vehicle and on familiar roads and routes in your area.
If your vehicle has an electronic fuel consumption reading, we will compare the pre and post-training fuel consumption.
Before the driving part of the course starts, your trainer will ask you to read the number plate of a stationary car to check that your eyesight meets the minimum regulation for driving.
At the end of the session, your trainer will give you a debrief and a written report.
